[support] Permission problem

[Bill Fitzgerald]

Sometimes access rights can be reset via your ftp client.

Log in using your ftp client, navigate to the directory you would like 
to change, and right-click and see what happens.

Alternately, create a directory using your ftp client (creating the dir 
with the client usually means that your ftp user owns the dir, and can 
subsequently manage permissions on it) -- then, point the video module 
at that new directory.

Cheers,

Bill
