Hello community,
I'm having a issue with the last v5 appimage and Enttec DMX USB PRO, it works only if I run the software as administrator.
I'm on Debian testing and I don't have v4 installed, do you know to which group should I add myself (or any user) to?
By default I'm in these groups: cdrom floppy sudo audio dip video plugdev netdev bluetooth lpadmin scanner.
I guess I should add myself to the group UUCP but before doing any change I'd prefer an expert advice, maybe there is a better solution,
thanks.

Ps. by default qlc+ sets the Output frequency at 44Hz while Enttec specs states that the max is 40Hz.
Wouldn't be better to set by default all the devices to a safe 30Hz?

GMa natively runs at 30 fps. Go figure.

Found the solution, I'm posting it in case someone wants to try the appimage without or before installing qlc+ v4.
You've to copy the udev rules found in the distro packages, in my case I need only the Enttec DMX USB PRO.
For Debian it's /etc/udev/rules.d/z65-dmxusb.rules

remember to delete the file name .txt extension and restart udev.
