Uploading videos

Videos that are in the /var/lib/mythtv/Videos directory can be watched through MythTV Media Library menu. TO get files here I want to be able to SSH in to my user on the computer and just upload them to the file; however, I need to give my user access to the files. To do this use:

chmod 777 /var/lib/mythtv

And now everyone has access to read, write and execute files in that directory.

Michael ... newbie to Myth and Linux ... have installed ... can Myth store files on a NAS so others can fetch them?
