When trying to run "depthai_demo.py" after a fresh install on Ubuntu 22.04 I get the following error

Any thoughts?

    Hi TDurham ,
    Have you installed the requirements? What's your opencv version?
    Thanks, Erik

      Yes, all requirements have been installed as far as I know. Have successfully built and installed ROS2 and OpenCV and they both run fine. OpenCV version is 4.5.4. I think it may be a permissions issue. I have QtCreator installed and get the same error when I run it. But, if I launch it as sudo it runs just fine.

        TDurham It looks like it's an opencv + QT issue (not related to depthai). Maybe check stackvoerflow, like this solution.
        THanks, Erik
