Title:
Cannot delete videos from MythTV
Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV:
In Pro
I had some extra time today and have started working on this. I have a rough
python script that should work. Features include
*) Runs 24x7 (not cron)
*) Uses inotify to trigger events
*) Events include setting permissions and group ownership, adding file to DB,
and searching for metadata
This wi
It's worth noting that I've borrowed some code from wagnerrp (upstream)
and was a big help in getting the bugs worked out so it actually added
the file and gathered metadata into the database

I'll mark this as wishlist. It's not going to get any love until I can
put something together using inotify. Ideally it would be a backend
patch for 0.25 since that will be where the scanner is at that time. As
always, patches welcome.

Forgot mentioning that umask only works for creating files but not for copying
them from somewhere else (e.g. from a pendrive). So I think setting
permissions from udev should be involved.

Not setting the correct permissions manually (just a matter of right-clicking)
but being able to make it automagically (e.g. via a cron job, which requires a
little bif of Linux knowledge, speci

The difference is that recordings are created by mythtv, one would
expect it to be able to delete the recordings. Video files are placed
there by something else. If the delete option in the menu in mythvideo
didn't exist, would you even expect to be able to delete videos?
I see two possible resolu

Not general files, but video files belongi
Marking this as wont fix. I've heard arguments on both sides, but we
cannot assume that a user wants to be able to delete files through
mythvideo. MythTV simply requests that the operating system delete the
file. Permissions set up at this point are key. Perhaps this will be
fixed in a future versi
Yes, I have it too. But IMHO hacking away basics it is not the proper
way of going for an issue like this in an (almost) out-of-the-box media
center.

I do a alot of copying of video files into myth daily. I simply have a
cron job that runs every few minutes to set the correct permissions.

It is not *only* an umask issue but also a cp one. I'll explain myself:
If I change the umask either in the local or global profile I can get
the proper permissions whenever I *create* a new file or folder but this
has no effect whenever I copy/move a file/folder from a removable device
into the v
Thank you for the bug report. I'm marking this as triaged as it seems to
have enough information. I'm not sure we can do it at a directory level,
but that seems likely to be a umask issue.
