mkv: (null): Unable to create file, open failed -- Permission denied
Added by Marc Ominus almost 3 years ago
I am trying to record on the external USB HDD that is NTFS formatted and connected to RaspberryPi 3.
The HDD is mounted at:
/media/pi/120gb
And recording path set to in Digital Video Recording Profiles:
/media/pi/120gb/minidlna
I have added it to FSTAB so it auto-mounts on startup:
# 120GB External USB --- ,
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
UUID=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX /media/pi/120gb ntfs-3g uid=1000,gid=1000,dmask=022,fmask=133 0 0
But I can not get the TVH to record to that HDD
Recording to SD Card works ..... files, that I have downloaded from YT
and placed in "/media/pi/120gb/minidlna" DIR work and are visible to MiniDLNA .....
Anyone any idea where I am going wrong?

OK, so I have changed FSTAB:
# 120GB External USB --- ,
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
UUID=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX /media/pi/120gb ntfs nofail,uid=pi,gid=pi 0 0
It now records, but with the following message:
mkv: /media/pi/120gb/minidlna/............mkv: Unable to change permissions -- Operation not permitted
dvr: /media/pi/120gb/minidlna/............mkv from adapter: "Sony CXD2880 #0 : DVB-T #0", network: "DVB-T Network", mux: "xxxMHz", provider: "XXXXXXXXX", service: "XXX"

Isn't more simple to change to exFAT file system?
