Hi folks.

I have written a new FAQ covering USB Volume Labels and how to manage
USB volumes.

https://answers.launchpad.net/openshot/+faq/759

This is a FAQ for anyone having problems with OpenShot not finding their
files/clips when they plug in their USB disks containing those files and
clips.

The FAQ details how to easily label all the USB volumes in your
collection to give each a unique label which the automounter will
translate into a unique pathway for that volume.

This will mean that OpenShot (and other apps) will always be able to
find the right files on USB devices. :-)

If getting any more of these "bugs"/"questions" on OpenShot failing to
find files on USB devices, please point them at this new FAQ.

I think most of these file finding "bugs" reported, are due to users
coming from the windoze world and so not being familiar with proper
volume management as used in Unix and Linux.

Best wishes, Helen
