Hello All, I have successfully installed the Plex on FreeNAS ( FreeNAS-9.10.1-U4)) from Plugin and updated to PlexDVR - Version 1.2.0.3167

When I try recording, I get the following error. “No write access to destination”

Following is the Permission : drwxrwxr-x+ 7 root wheel 13 Dec 26 11:59 media  
folder “media” is directs to /mnt/Seagate1/Media. I mounted this via storage under Jail . I also access this via windows share

Plex runs with user id : 972  
chmod -R 775 /media from jail gives “operation not permitted”

I created the group/user plex with userID - 972 and able to chown the folder to plex group (although that might affect my other application that is using the same share/storage)

I am still not able to record anything. and gives me same error.

I know I am missing something, can I get some help here.
