if you are using a actual distribution, you may not have a static dev
directory, this directory is created every time on boot via udev.
you have to look at /etc/udev/permison.rules or so...

Subject: Re: [mythtv-users] Why does /dev/dvb reset permisions on boot?

Hi folks,
Probably an obvious question (bit of Linux newbie here I'm afraid) but why
would the permissions on my dvb devices reset to allow just root access
each
time I reboot? Myth can't access them as the 'mythtv' user doesn't have
write permission but I change this using chmod... it just can't retain the
change...
After I got DVB working, the DVB devices (in /dev/dvb/adapter0/*) had no
permissions so only root could see them. The fix was to add
chmod 666 /dev/dvb/adapter0/*
to /etc/rc.d/rc.local
which resets them to something sensible each reboot.
