I am trying to set a folder for DVR recordings on cifs share.
Created a folder and it looks like:
drwxrwsrwx 1 emby emby 0 Sep 3 09:46 recordings/
(the parent folder is =
drwxrwsrwx 1 emby emby 440 Sep 3 09:46 Emby_Backups/)
However when I set it I get an error: "Emby Server requires write access to this folder. Please ensure write access and try again."
What am I missing ?
Thx
yeah....i have zero clue about filesystem permissions. 🙄
So it turns out Arch needs some special tweaking. I need to create a directory and file:
/etc/systemd/system/emby-server.service.d/write-permissions.conf
containing not quite what the Arch wiki says:
[Service]
SupplementaryGroups=users
ReadWritePaths= /home/emby/
Ownership of /home/emby is still emby:emby.
Restart emby and everything works. No problem setting the DVR directory path.
