hi guys,
juset setup wheezy on my Pi with tvheadend, live TV works perfectly in XBMC! couldn't be greater.

problem is I can't record anything, it says "recording" but no file is created anywhere.

Recording system path: /mnt/recordings/

(i created the mount link to a tv dump drive on my network and confirmed it works creating a test file using root access and it appears on my folder on my pc)

but creating a file as any other user fails 'you do not have permission' I've tried to 666 or 777 chmod the folder, still nothing.

any ideas on what i'm doing wrong ?

You need to set permissions of your share in your mount command, fstab or however you're mounting it

sudo mount -t cifs -o guest //192.168.1.109/tv/recordings/ /mnt/recordings

and my fstsab entry is :

//192.168.1.109/tv/recordings/ /mnt/recordings cifs guest 0 0



that's how i'm mounting it, set it to do that each boot too. is there something else I need to change in that ?


if i type 'mount' I see this:

//192.168.1.109/tv/recordings/ on /mnt/recordings type cifs (rw,relatime,vers=1.0,sec=ntlm,cache=loose,unc=\\192.168.1.109\tv,uid=0,noforceuid,gid=0,noforcegid,addr=192.168.1.109,file_mode=0755,dir_mode=0755,nounix,serverino,rsize=61440,wsize=65536,actimeo=1)

//192.168.1.109/tv/recordings/ /mnt/recordings cifs guest,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,_netdev 0 0
