Hi Dave Im sorry it’s not you it’s me…..
To do permissions you have to be in „system mode“ called root. let’s do it once again note my added line:
We change user from pi to root
Type:
sudo su
[ENTER]
„if asked for password use: max2play“
note that the beginning of each command has gone from pi@DenC to root@DenC
Type:
chmod -R 775 /media/usb0
[ENTER]
Type:
chown -R pi:pi /media/usb0
[ENTER]
Type:
reboot
[ENTER]
after the reboot; „notice you are back in „pi“ (user) mode“ go back to your usb0 folder
Type:
cd /media/usb0
[ENTER]
Type:
ls
[ENTER]
you should now se folders and/or files who are stored on your hard drive.
If this is the case open your Logitech media server and go to the settings page. Check that the server is set to scan the /media/usb0 folder and do a complete scan.
It should work now!!
