Dear Lads,

I noticed something related to openATV 6.4 on Zgemma H9S.
Even with setting Recording folder to /media/mmc/movie and Timeshift folder to /media/mmc/timeshift.
OpenATV is creating these two folder again at each reboot or powercycle in /media/hdd/
How to solve this ?

Best Regards,

Wonder if this is because the mount of /media/mmc/ hasn't happened before the path check and set to the default of /media/hdd/.

I've had empty movie and timeshift folders peppered across my flash and external hdds over time and manually delete them.

Perhaps (once the mount/create order has been rectified) at the very least a notification to advise that default paths are being used... ideally even with an option to open the Recording settings screen.

That's very weird because I already setup manually every single variable related to Recording and Timeshift to /media/mmc.
But still at each reboot two new empty folders are being created in /media/hdd.
Its annoying to delete them every reboot

openATV 6.4 won't receive updates anymore.

Please move to openATV 7.2.

I proposed a fix for this issue for openATV 7.2.
