Can’t find NextPVR recordings

Hi all. My docker knowledge is less than 1 out of a 100, I’m a copy/paste and hope it works.

Sorry if this line isn’t allowed but I have a terramaster Nas running TOS 5.1 (my 1st actual NAS) I have an app called docker manager.

I have managed to install nextPVR, I have my tuner setup, I have it up and running and have recording working…. Congrats to me….. so far so good. I can see my recordings WITHIN the nextPVR webgui and can play them back, but the folder looks empty. No files at all. Reading up it looks like it’s a user/ permissions issue.

I think that docker is running the app as root, yet the only user on my NAS I’d mine….. let’s say Fred.
In docker manager I can see a tab called “variables” is it possible to add users/ permissions from here?

Hope this all makes sense

Thanks.

After reading some of the replies in here I need it in basic terms. 😂😂

Sorry I didn’t know you had replied.

Model F4-423

TOS version 5.1.95-00372
Docker is 1.2.9

Little update on this, I have also installed SabNzbd, live pvr app/software runs perfect, I have managed to download files but again not visible in any location. It’s almost as if they files can’t get out the docker container.

Based on the information you provided, it is speculated that you may not have set up a mounted volume, or the mounted volume may not have sufficient permissions. The super administrator you are using is equivalent to the root user in Docker.
Docker related files are hidden. If you need to view and edit them, please use SSH tools.
Location: /Volume1/\@DockerData/

I only have one user, I did add a test account to see if I could see any files with a different user with only read rights.

Hello, please provide a screenshot or startup command of the docker container. Maybe I can check it for you.

Here are two of the paths. I can’t get to find any of these though.


Hope it helps. If I don’t find a solution soon I might have to return as not much use to me like this. Thanks.
