    Does the Jellyfin user have permission to write to /video/recordings?

    ls -l /video/recordings

    I already understood that for recording the jellyfin user must have rights to the folder. The jellyfin user may not have rights to the video files folder. Correct

    Thanks

    I see you updated the opening post.  These permissions are not sufficient for Jellyfin to write to them.  Jellyfin has its own user, it does not run as root.

    Code:
    sudo chmod 755 /video
    sudo chown -R jellyfin: /video/record
    sudo chmod -R 750 /video/record

    And it is possible for each user to have their own recording folder
    Everyone at home can see what I'm recording ?
    So that one does not see what the other has

    No. You can only define one folder to record to. You'd need to manually separate the recordings into separate libraries.
