You can try piping the output of find into the xargs command. For example,
find /home/chadws/mythtv -type d |
I need to chmod a directory tree to change the permissions on the
directories but not the files they contain.
Is there a way to do this with chmod or another tool?

Take a look at the vfat filesystem option "dmask" of mount

you should first read up on the "chmod" command and what it means

Something to do with 'chmod' and the use of 'S'.

First you might want to make sure you *really* want to set world writable perms.

uhm - find and xargs are your friends...
find /path/to/your/folder -type f | xargs chmod -v 755
find /path/to/your/folder -type d | xargs chmod -v 777
that should do you...
