[Bug 1043083] [NEW] Save project to removable storage

 

Public bug reported:

Or anywhere else in the filesystem other than $HOME.

I tried saving a file somewhere else than $HOME and it apparently did
save, except it did not save to the location specified and instead
defaulted to $HOME (letting me belive it did). Choosing save project
as... and then pointing to another location doesn't help using GNOME's
file dialog (use the drop menu to choose "other" and then navigate to
this other location) only to find that OpenShot saved the project to my
/home directory, and even to other directories INSIDE it, I cannot save
to (for instance to $HOME/Videos/Projects/<project_name>), so I end up
having to forcibly save to $HOME/ and a bunch of .osp files
desorganized.

System: Fedora 17
OpenShot version: 1.4.2 gotten from RPMForge (openshot-1.4.2-4.fc17.noarch.rpm)
LibMLT version: 0.7.8-1.fc17.x86_64

Installed through yum
