Proper tagging of MKV files - how and what?

<< < (6/8) > >>

cochinada:
sudo mount -t cifs //<WINDOWS_PC_IP>/<SHARE_PATH> /mnt/windows-share -o username=<USERNAME>,password=<PASSWORD>,uid=$(id -u),gid=$(id -g),file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777

file_mode=0777 and dir_mode=0777 give full read/write permissions to the files and directories.

This was done already so I'll activate the logging and will post it here in a while.

cochinada:
I was about to copy the Log into my shared folder for uploading here and found the issue:



It is indeed because those folders were mounted with a different user. I just don't know what's the best way to fix this now. ::)

Maybe I'll try to mount those folders with the same user that MC uses. Which one is that BTW? "joaquim" as appears in my prompt or a special one?

EDIT: Great News!!!
I don't know how this happened but my MoviesE shared folder on Windows side had still only Read permissions so I've set it to Read/Write (again) and now it works!
I can finally see very nice thumbnails!
Thank you so much for all your help! It seems for now I have only to select all my movies and use that nice option "Get Movie..." again :)

zybex:
On the Windows side, did you check if the folder has RW permissions for "Everyone"? You need to set it both on the folder permissions and on the share permissions.

That was indeed the issue! this folder has eluded me for some weird reason...  ;D

I now see these strange files inside each folder:
Coriolanus (2011)_mkv_JRSidecar.xml

Great :)

You can disable Sidecar files in MC Options.
