#1523 new enhancement

Record output direct to memory card - XO

Reported by: yamaplos Owned by: alsroot
Priority: Unspecified by Maintainer Milestone: Unspecified
Component: Record Version: Unspecified
Severity: Unspecified Keywords: AU
Cc: Distribution/OS: Unspecified
Bug Status: Resolved

Description

It would be nice to have an option to send the files from Record directly to an external card, SD or flash stick. This would diminish the risks of clogging the memory of the XOs. If this were implemented it would be further nice to have maybe an "advanced" tab to set this as default.

Implementation might require storing in local memory for performance, and then either automatic transfer to the card and release of the temp memory used locally, or manual option for each file to do that right away.

This probably is sort of a non-issue with SoaS, where all is stored in the stick anyway, but of great benefit for journaling, blogging, mainstream classroom use and documentation when using the XO.
