Cannot change Cover directory #392

Maybe I'm dumb but I cannot figure out how to change the covers, etc download directory to the USB device. My SD card is only 1GB and I have over 1k covers to download so keeping them on the SD is not an option. I tried changing the following:

dir_backgrounds=sd:/wiiflow/backgrounds dir_banner_cache=sd:/wiiflow/cache/banners dir_box_covers=sd:/wiiflow/boxcovers dir_cache=sd:/wiiflow/cache dir_cart=sd:/wiiflow/cart_disk dir_cheat=sd:/wiiflow/codes/gct dir_coverflows=sd:/wiiflow/themes_lite/coverflows dir_custom_banners=sd:/wiiflow/custom_banners dir_fanart=sd:/wiiflow/fanart dir_flat_covers=sd:/wiiflow/covers dir_help=sd:/wiiflow/help dir_languages=sd:/wiiflow/languages dir_list_cache=sd:/wiiflow/cache/lists dir_music=sd:/wiiflow/music dir_plugins=sd:/wiiflow/plugins dir_plugins_data=sd:/wiiflow/plugins_data dir_screenshot=sd:/wiiflow/screenshots dir_settings=sd:/wiiflow/settings dir_snap=sd:/wiiflow/snapshots dir_source=sd:/wiiflow/source_menu dir_themes_lite=sd:/wiiflow/themes_lite dir_trailers=sd:/wiiflow/trailers dir_txtcheat=sd:/wiiflow/codes dir_wiitdb=sd:/wiiflow/settings dir_wip=sd:/wiiflow/codes/wip

to from "sd:/" to "usb:/" and nothing happened

I think the quickest and easiest option is to use a larger SD card!

For reference, rough sizes:

I am afraid that WFL expects the directories on the same medium as it is installed (apps/wiiflow). At least that's how I interpret the source code.

Luckily this undocumented feature, is a feature, you just have to specify the correct usb. eg: usb1:/ worked for me. Down/Loading times are also much faster, so I'd recommend using this method.
