Check the permissions of device /dev/video0. For example:
me@myhost:~$ ls -l /dev/video0
crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 1 Dec 31 1969 /dev/video0
This means I can open this device as user root (sudo) or as a user which is a member of group video.
You can change the user or group ownership on the /dev/video0 file at the time it is created, by modifying or creating a udev rules file.
