Also, running the CA inside of a VM won't work since the CA will not be
able to talk to the capture hardware (in this case, the webcam) without
having that hardware passed through.  Are you certain that Virtualbox
can do this?  This will also be incredibly resource intensive, although
I suspect you're already aware of this.
