External Storage Permission Denied

[cdagli]

Hello,

I am trying to download files from some apps on my Android TV to my usb drive plugged in. But as I can see in the logs app doesn't have proper permissions to access that folder;

OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/storage/sda2/TV Shows'

Everything works okay with the internal storage.

My question is how can i set the folder permissions?

Thank you

Is it a USB 'drive' (HDD) or a USB 'stick'?
What is the size of the drive?
Does it read from the device?
What version of Android are you running?

I know this is a silly question, but have you tried a different drive or different USB slot?

It may be that the Android Manifest file is corrupted.

Hello Andrew,

It is 16GB sized USB stick.
It works okay with my laptop and it is formatted as FAT32.
It reads from the device.
I am not sure about the version I will check it tonight but it is updated to latest.

No, I didn't tried a different slot but I will try.

Thank you
