Bug report

Describe the bug

I have a question regarding permissions for executing scripts in Android, I have assigned permissions for executing ffmpeg but nevertheless I still end up getting "Permission denied" no matter what permissions I assign to the file.

Have not had these concerns on earlier versions of Android, so probably something that has changed in the later versions that I have not managed to figure out. Anyone possibly know how to get around this problem?

Expected Behavior

Allow writing recording file to disk.

Actual Behavior

Permission denied.

Possible Fix

Not available.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Start recording on Android system.

Here I have assigned read, write and execution permissions for owner as well as deletion permissions.
Permissions for ffmpeg

And here is the subprocess output for running ffmpeg.
Subprocess command

output: probesize: /data/user/0/org.xbmc.kodi/recapp-posix/ffmpeg: Permission denied
