Info about my file permissions

[sscheib 11]

Hello,

whenever I start the playback of the particular season of The Big Bang Theory the automatic encoding fails.

Following shows up in the logfile (sensitive data is censored):

However, when I run the exact same command from the commandline it starts transcoding and when I do that quick enough, the webpage starts playing the episode.

Any ideas?

I think its only with files which are not isEligibleForDirectPlay and not isEligibleForDirectStream. Just a wild guess

Hi, please attach the complete log files, thanks.

[sscheib 11]

Uhm well, I think i narrowed it down to the following issue:

 

file:/path/The.Big.Bang.Theory/S09/The.Big.Bang.Theory.S09E09/s09e09.mkv: Permission denied

 

However! the file IS readable, BUT it's a readonly filesystem (it is meant like that). The question is: why would emby or to be more precise ffmpeg need write permissions on this file to transcode it?

As the temporary path (which is /opt/emby/ffmpeg/transcode) is rw for the emby user ..

 

Any ideas?

 

 

 

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

 

EDIT:

Okey .. my fault, I'm sorry. The folder is readable for emby but not the file itself .. for whatever reason, but thats surely no emby/ffmpeg issue.

I'm sorry for the circumstances.
