Hi. So for awhile I have been trying to get my server to record shows and then run a script to change the file type automatically. I made a script that I thought would do that for me, it didn’t work. I found one online that seemed like it would work, it didn’t. I used what I learned from both of those and made a new script, it didn’t work. Is there something I am missing? I want to convert from .ts to .mp4, and then change the owner and permissions on the file. That’s all I want to do. Why doesn’t this want to work?testing.txt (1007 Bytes)
Did you make the script executable by the user that’s running Plex?
Yep. The permissions are set to 755
Try having it do some echo’s a file. or ‘echo test >> /tmp/test’ or whatever that location was.
Just did that and it looks like it never executed the file. Does the file need to be in a specific spot? I put the correct path in on Plex that goes to the script
I’m guessing the user running Plex is plex. Does plex have access to the folder where the script is?
Yep. Plex can go in the directory where the script is
