What's the complete command you entered to change permissions? If you're
running LMS on the standard Raspberry Pi OS, I suspect it needs to be
something like this:


Code:
--------------------
    sudo chmod -R 744 /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/prefs/plugin/
--------------------


(It's always a good idea to wait long enough to give other users a
chance to chime in and suggest corrections to my mistakes.)

As SlimChances mentioned, you should also check ownership of those
files. On mine they belong to user squeezeboxserver and group nogroup.



LMS 8 nightly running on Raspberry Pi OS. Mostly virtual players,
occasionally with SB Radio, Boom or Classic.
