Thanks @dynamicdave,

Here's what I see after the `chmod` command:

```auto
pi@nr-vid-sec:/var/www/html/hss_media/recordings/09 $ ls -lt
total 400
-rw-r--r-- 1 pi pi 47940 May 10 07:22 07-22-45.mp4.jpg
-rw-r--r-- 1 pi pi 0 May 10 07:22 07-22-45.mp4
-rwxrwxr-x 1 pi www-data 38175 May 10 07:15 07-15-02.mp4.jpg
-rwxrwxr-x 1 pi www-data 0 May 10 07:15 07-15-02.mp4

```

You can see that before the `chmod` command, both `pi` and `www-data` had ownership, but now when the app saves the files, only `pi` has ownership. Regardless, I still get the `403 Forbidden` error. Screenshot below.

Group membership looks okay:

```auto
pi@nr-vid-sec:/var/www/html/hss_media/recordings/09 $ members www-data
www-data pi

```

Perhaps related, the HSS site instructions say:

> "After a few seconds (approx 12-secs) the background will revert back to green - indicating the recording has been completed."

but unfortunately, that didn't work for me. After I press the "Recording" button I almost instantly see a "Recoding Done" message (not in 12 seconds) and a file is created in `../recordings/09`, but the button stays red, as shown in the screenshot.

Not sure if it's related, but my RPi is running headless and I'm running the app from a browser on a different computer.

Thoughts?
