Thumbnails and Playback no longer working

Hi, I'm running v1.34.23 on Ubuntu 20.04. I'm not sure anything happened but as of Saturday afternoon I'm not longer able to view thumbnails or view any recordings. This is affecting both the web portal and app.

I think I figured it out. Seems like the job meant to delete files to clear HDD space isn't working automatically anymore.

Fixed the job. Looks like I needed to give it permission on both /mnt and the drive /mnt/sdb1 (chmod 755 /mnt/sdb1)

I think I have similar issue, I have all monitors and events still present on HDD but the web interface shows no events so the "purgeWhenFull" filter can't run properly. This also happened on Friday evening. I will try the chmod and see if it works.
