Tvheadend

Furthermore, TVHeadend is installed in a directory called "nonexistent" which I believe is related to the error

4.3~1994raspianbullseye and 4.3~2154raspianbullseye

Arch:arm64

Make public directory

sudo mkdir -p /playlists
sudo chmod -R 755 /playlists
sudo chown -R nobody.nobody /playlists

file:///playlists/xy.m3u

Good Morning from Germany,

Public Directory didn´t work, same Problem no permissions.

I have a Workaround now from Developer of RaspianOS Bookworm Beta Build

sudo -H -u hts bash -c 'ls -l /home/user/playlists/playlist.m3u'

Then this specific playlist works and i can access it from TVHeadend.

Change also permission to playlist in public folder,
or use local http server to serve playlist.

What's the exact Tvheadend version you are using? Copy the full version string from the about screen. Also check if the user that Tvheadend is running as can access the file.

TVHeadend Version : 4.3-2154~gec56067f4

The TVHeadend User is hts.

If i install TVHeadend new to my Raspberry the TVHeadend User hts has no access to the Playlist File.

After adding this line to commandline then User hts have access to the m3u File.

sudo -H -u hts bash -c 'ls -l /home/user/playlists/playlist.m3u'

My OS is Debian 12 Bookworm.

ps aux | grep tvheadend

this will show user and group
set playlist to same.

I have installed TVHeadend from official Raspian OS Repo

http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm InRelease

It´s Version TVHeadend 4.3-2155~gfe4df311d

ps aux | grep tvheadend

Shows User hts and Group video

If i change owner from playlist.m3u to hts and group video then I still don't have access to the m3u file (tvheadend.log shows: [ ERROR]:iptv: unable to open file '/home/user/TVPlaylists/playlist.m3u': Keine Berechtigung)

I have tried set it to 755, tried the above command line : sudo -H -u hts bash -c 'ls -l /home/user/playlists/playlist.m3u'

But all without success

Don't use chmod use chown.
Make folder away from /home/user.
Make it accessible from all users.

Ah yes that works

If i store it in /home/TVPlaylists i have it accessible from all users
