Dietpi Emby permissions when adding new content

[Brammes01 0]

Hello.

 

At my raspberry pi i have mounted an external HDD

/mnt/dietpi_userdata/media

I have a MEDIA folder that has currently 3 folders in it:

-----------------------------

- paths

      * cache

      * metadata

      * transcoding

- movies

     * Movie A

     * Movie B

     * Movie C

     * ..

-tvseries

 

------------------------------

The problem that i did face was when I click on a movie, you see the actors, rating, information etc.

If i clicked on a button, and select in the submenu: "Edit subtitle", I try to search for missing subs.

(opensubtitle.org login is OK).

 

Emby couldn't write the subs to the folder, because it doesnt have permission. To fix that I did the following next 2 commands in the console:

 

chmod 770 -R /mnt/dietpi_userdata/media 

chown -R emby:emby /mnt/dietpi_userdata/media 

 

The result is that everything works, subs gets added.

 

When i put a new movie from my PC to my raspberry pi HDD (/mnt/dietpi_userdata/media/movies/) using SAMBA.

Somehow permissions reset, and when i try to search for subs, it can't download them because it doesnt have write permissions.

 

Does anyone have a idea how to fix this forever?
