Dear Maintainer,
Video capture feature doesn't work with virtualbox package in Debian.
But it works with package upstream provides.

-----------------------------------------------------------
With debian packaged virtualbox, video capture feature seems to be
disabled.
I've tried 5.2.6-dfsg-1 and got same result. Under 5.2.4 does not work
with current kernel (failed with building module), so not checked.
