Gstreamer kmssink under system user. " Could not open DRM module"

[Daniel Rossi]

I'm trying to run gstreamer under a system user in systemd. This command explains the situation. When I try to run it in a user setup to run this service I get a kmssink error.

I am creating a user , in the debian package, which looks like

serviceuser:x:999:995::/nonexistent:/usr/sbin/nologin

sudo -u serviceuser gst-launch-1.0 playbin video-sink=kmssink uri=srt://:8888

Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...

ERROR: Pipeline doesn't want to pause.

ERROR: from element /GstKMSSink:kmssink0: Could not open DRM module (NULL)

Additional debug info:

gstkmssink.c(836): gst_kms_sink_start (): /GstKMSSink:kmssink0:

reason: No such file or directory (2)

Setting pipeline to NULL ...

Freeing pipeline ...

Any ideas ?

To use kmssink you need appropriate right to access /dev/dri/carX
(usually card0), and a known card need to exist on your system. Check
that you have met the preconditions. For more details on the error, try
settintg the env GST_DEBUG=kmssink:7
