VDR Recordings permissions - ezechiel1917 - 2013-04-01

Is there a way to change permissions of VDR Recordings files from default 644? I'd like to add write access to vdr group. Is it possible?


RE: VDR Permissions - ezechiel1917 - 2013-04-02

Solved, I've found out how to do it with recording-hooks.

Old thread I know, but does anyone know if there is a way to do this without recording-hooks?

Or is there a way to log into the "vdr" user on a linux machine so that an application might have read/write to the recordings?

I can do a "sudo su - vdr" and a "whoami" afterwards, but there is no change in user

Set umask globally or just for vdr user to 002.
