Hi all,

I am new to this but i have tried to set up Sabnzbd with sickbeard to do auto downloads for all my tv series. It has been doing the downloads fine but then i wanted to also transcode most of the files downaloaded are in .mkv type file but i want to use .mp4 files which works well with Chromecast.

I found this script which i m using but getting permission denied error not sure what i am doing wrong?

Code: Select all

python: can't open file '/volume1/Downloads/Scripts/sabToSickBeardwithConverter.py': [Errno 13] Permission denied

Code: Select all

#!/usr/bin/env python

import os
import sys
import autoProcessTV
from readSettings import ReadSettings
from mkvtomp4 import MkvtoMp4

settings = ReadSettings(os.path.dirname(sys.argv[0]), "autoProcess.ini")

path = str(sys.argv[1])
converter = MkvtoMp4(settings)
converter.output_dir = None
for r, d, f in os.walk(path):
    for files in f:
        inputfile = os.path.join(r, files)
        if MkvtoMp4(settings).validSource(inputfile):
            try:
            	print "Valid file detected: " + inputfile
            except:
            	print "Valid file detected"
            converter.process(inputfile)

"""Contents of sabToSickbeard.py"""
if len(sys.argv) < 2:
    print "No folder supplied - is this being called from SABnzbd?"
    sys.exit()
elif len(sys.argv) >= 3:
    autoProcessTV.processEpisode(sys.argv[1], sys.argv[2])
else:
    autoProcessTV.processEpisode(sys.argv[1])

Any ideas?

Thanks for help in advance

Make sure the script has its X-bit set and that the /usr/bin/env exists
and can actually find Python.
You can try to change the first line to:

Code: Select all

#!/usr/bin/python

Hi Shypike

Thanks for your reply, i have tried to change it to the line suggested but still getting the same issue. Then i tried to follow some instructions how to browse into the root and basically have not got the folder present as i m getting the following:

Code: Select all

root@DiskStation:~# cd /usr/bin/env
-ash: cd: /usr/bin/env: Not a directory
root@DiskStation:~#

not sure how to create the env or if i remove that to just have Python.

When i do a dir i get these:

Code: Select all

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root   root       7 Mar 24 14:27 python -> python2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root   root       9 Mar 24 14:27 python2 -> python2.7
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root   root    5688 Mar 23 04:31 python2.7
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root   root   26404 Mar  7 02:14 qrencode

When you said to make sure that the script has its X-bit set what do you mean by that as this doesn't mean anything to me at the moment

Can you please explain what it is or how to set it?

Have managed to resolve this now, went into each file in the scripts folder and into properties and gave the users full access to the files.
