Thanks for your reply! Running LMS 8.2 on Ubuntu Server 18.0.2. There
was no RatingsLight folder in Playlists, and creating one manually and
testing different scenarios didn't solve it. All attempts to
export/backup from Ratings Light gave the "could not write" error
mentioned in my previous post.

I did a lot of testing of different permissions and ownership for the
Playlists folder and below, but the only thing that worked in the end
was deleting the prefs file for Ratings Light in 
/var/lib/squeezeboxserver/prefs/plugin . On next run, Ratings Light
successfully created /Playlists/RatingsLight as squeezeboxserver:nogroup
        0755 .
