allow permission readynas folder torrent

Installed Transmission torrent dowloader on Readynas 102 Firmw 6.6.1
I set the download folder outside the apps folder as

/Video/_QDownloads

permission to write in this folder is denied
How can I allow?
Should I viceversa stick to dowloading in the apps folder of Readynas?
When changing the download folder I forgot the correct directoy to set, please help

thanks

    Well on the folder where I wanted to record downloaded files from Transmission torrent client, rights are set to read/write for everyone

    However if I create a new folder from scratch and I set it for downloading files then they are written correctly

    The difference between the two folders is that in the new folder the DLNA service is not active

    Are the torrents directly stored in the download folder, or are they copied there after the torrent completes?

     

    If the DLNA scanner tries to scan the a media file that isn't fully downloaded, it will of course run into corruption in the file.  That could easily create problems with the scanning.
