HTS TVHeadend Server on Shield Pro - DVR/Time-Shift does not work

Stefan Ehlers

Hi Guys,

I have an issue with my Nvidia Shield Pro 2019. The device ist rooted and I am running Lineage OS 17.1 on it. I have also installed HTS Tvheadend 4.3 Server on it.

My problem now is, that Time-Shift and PVR is not working.

I allways get the message:

timeshift: unable to create dir "file:": read-only file system

Doesn`t matter if I want to save it on an internal path like "file:///storage/self/primary/TV", or on a USB device using the path "file:///storage/0947-1208/TV".

I can remember from Linux days, that it was a permission thing. But I am new to Android world and don`t know what to do now.

Any help is highly appreciated.

Thanks and have a good day

Stefan

It appears to be a mounting issue according to this https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6066030/read-only-file-system-on-android

Nope, path is specified incorrectly. Remove thatfile:// prefix.
