When a path other than the internal memory is given to the app, it encounters the failed to retrieve the selected path error
Please also support otg drives even if root access is required, because it is really needed
Thank you very much for your great app

Hi,

Did you read #47? If it is actually required, root access could be implemented.

And, do you get this error when selecting a directory on an external SD card?

OK, and what happens if you manually enter the path of the otg drive in the text field?

OK. MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE will be implemented first, then we'll see how it goes.

When I have time to work on it. No, the next release won't support root access, but it should implement MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE, which should allow accessing OTG drives according to the doc.

MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE has been implemented with d2f11c85d1. You can compile the app from source if you want to see right now whether it works, or wait for the next release.

I opened a similar issue over on GitHub. I would be interested in testing the MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE feature, though I must confess I'm having trouble compiling. Any chance of a pre-release APK?
