coilgun, it doesn't matter, which user calls your scripts. as soon as any command is "sudoed", effective user id and group id is 0.

but this is not a problem. effective user permissions are not related to truecrypt volume, but the fs on top of it.

so unlock the tc volume, then mount it under root. then simply do "chown -Rc xbian:xbian /home/xbian/Videos"

if you intend to use volume on other system (other uid) as well, mount the filesystem with options dmask=0000,fmask=0111 (what effectively creates all new files with chmod 666 and dirs with 777).
