And how would i go about that?

I guess i would need a bash script with the chmod and chown commands in
it,and i would need to make it executable but i've never written a script
before.

No - if you look in that directory you should see current permissions
scriptlets, which should give you the idea.

Create a new file with appropriate style of name (number hyphen
something dot permissions) - I use
 /etc/udev/permissions.d/20-dvb.permissions

Into that put a phrase to match the devices, and set the permissions, I
have the following for the dvb device
 dvb/adapter[0-3]*/*:root:mythtv:0666

Don't edit an existing file unless you know what you are doing -
automatic updates on those files later might cause problems.

Nigel.

That worked like a charm.
I made the group video but kept everything else the same and it worked after a re-boot.

Thanks for that.
