Are you sure you only have the map Video's? Then full permission should have worked... maybe try to give all the maps a full permission? :)

Thank you so much for your prompt reply.
Yes , I have verified the same , somewhere videos were not properly mapped.
I have verified the same , Now its working.
Solution : sudo chmod 777 foldername (command to give full permission), make sure they are properly mapped, as specified location
Thank you once again...
