Sonarr changing folder permission?

Help & Support
1

I’m running Kodi on RPI that is getting all the episodes from my PC.

Sometimes Kodi is unable to run the files and i’m getting he following error - according to Kodi forums, it seems like Sonarr is changing the folder read permissions once it moves the files to the show folder. How can i fix it?

You can set the permissions Sonarr will set on Media Management settings in Sonarr.

Sorry, that only applies to Sonarr running on non-Windows systems, if they’re not visible you must be running on Windows, in which case, check the permissions for the folders in the shares, Sonarr doesn’t alter them, it only inherits the folder’s permissions on the files it imports (to avoid issues).
