Hello. I'm new to Kodi, but I've been doing a lot of searching and it seems like ViMediaManager is the best solution for me to organize and rename my media library.
But I'm having an annoying problem with permissions. I have put a few movies into a test directory to learn how the renaming functions work. This directory is hosted on an NFS share on my NAS. The user mapped to the connection is the owner of the directory and all files and directories within. The permissions are writable for that use (I've even tried making them writable by everyone).
When I first scan the directory, it offers to put movie files that are in the root directory into their own folders. I accept this and it does so without any issues. So clearly creating directories is not a problem.
But when I fetch metadata, I have issues. It'll fetch some images and some information, writing these to the appropriate directories and files. But then it'll choke at some point, giving me the error "I do not have permission to write <movie title>".
I've tried this with several different movies. I've tried enabling write permissions on the entire directory tree for everyone. I'm not sure what else the problem could be. Any ideas? Thanks!
