Docker Zoom Configuration

[brm]

Hi. While attempting to install Zoom (video conferencing) via Docker on Mageia 8 - it fails with the error "/dev/video no such file or directory"
Any ideas on how to address this? System is Mageia 8 desktop PC. The packages v4l-utils is installed as is x11-driver-video-v4l. I tried to install "Olive" the video editing software thinking that it would install the device but no - it did not happen.
What would you suggest? How to get /dev/video in the device tree?

If you download and install the Fedora package via "urpmi zoom_x86_64.rpm" everything works fine. https://zoom.us/download#client_4meeting
Which package for which distribution did you download from the zoom page?
Is there a reason why you try to install it with docker?

Zoom also works as Flatpak

Nice suggestions - do we have Flatpak in Mageia?

But in all honesty I like the concept of Docker and would like to see it play a bigger part in Mageia. That extra layer of security to a Microsoft program is valuable to me.
There must be some way to get /dev/video in the device tree and listed with all other things in /dev directory.

I am not thinking this through. I am trying to run Zoom on this desktop without a camera. This is not going to work. I need to come up with something else.

Yes we do, that's explained in the link that morgano posted ...

Apart from that, you can also use Zoom without a camera.

You can also plug in a USB camera.
