"No output" message on Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.
2.
wget -r -np -nH --cut-dirs=3 
http://webcamstudio.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/trunk/vloopback/

cd vloopback

make && make install

3. Start webcamstudio 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

In the bottom right of webcamstudio's window the "No output!" message is shown. 
Is not possible to select the virtual webcam in Flash sites.

Also I have the following in /dev

alex@haiku:/dev$ ls -l /dev/ | grep video
crw-rw----  1 root video    29,   0 2011-05-03 00:39 fb0
crw-rw----+ 1 root video    81,   0 2011-05-03 00:39 video0
crw-rw----+ 1 root video    81,   1 2011-05-03 00:40 video1

The window About > Video Device info shows:

/dev/video1 WebcamStudio Video Device   V4L2    Output
/dev/video0 USB 2.0 Camera  V4L2    Output

Could you confirm that the loopback module was built succesfully?

Have you tried runnig WS4GL as root to see if it's a permission issue.  You 
often need on some setup to be part of the "video" group as only root and group 
"video" can have access to the device.

I'll have to check with a user having less privileges...
