Sorry for bumping this but just want to know if this is a bug?

Im using 7.2.5 and I cant see that this problem is fixed in the later releases.

I have the same problem in Version 7.2.8 - I determine a media start-Node, but in the grid, the User only see "media" with empty content and there is no way to see his folders, files or to upload new one.

Is there a workaround for this issue?

For me the only solution was to move all folders to the root of the media section. Then I was able to reach the folders!

Mh, but in a multi-user environment, this is not an option for me. User 1 has its own media folder and User 2 is not allowed to access the folders of User 1 and vise versa.

Seems that in Version 7.4. the problem is fixed.

The error returned with me. Running Version 7.3.4.

I investigate the code. I logged in with a user, that has a subfolder of the media section as Startnode.

In the Umbraco.Overlays.MediaPickerController, this line setup the startnode of the media picker. If I hardcode the ID of the Startnode, everything works:

Line 3283 of /umbraco/js/umbraco.controllers.js

$scope.startNodeId = dialogOptions.startNodeId ? dialogOptions.startNodeId : -1;

Console-Log of dialogOptions.startNodeId returns undefined.

So what can I do? I don't want to overwrite core-code for this. Did I configured something wrong or is this a bug?

Please help!!!

Ok. Here is my workarround for the issue, but I would be pleased to get feedback from the hq, if this is a correct solution and will be fixed in the future - cause updating umbraco will be difficult, if I change core code. :)

First, I added the userService to Grid.MediaController in line 10259:

.controller("Umbraco.PropertyEditors.Grid.MediaController",
    function ($scope, $rootScope, $timeout,userService) {

After that, I insert the following code to line 10261:

if (!$scope.model.config.startNodeId) {
            userService.getCurrentUser().then(function (userData) {
                $scope.model.config.startNodeId = userData.startMediaId;
                console.log($scope.model.config.startNodeId);
            });
        }

Finally, in line 10278, I added this:

$scope.mediaPickerOverlay.startNodeId = $scope.model.config.startNodeId;

Now, the correct StartNodeId is set.
