choose disk on which to put previews

Hi Gunther,

I have a bunch of sequences on a slow USB drive (forced to put them there because my fast drives are full with projects I haven't completed yet). This means that LRT's previews are also on this slow drive (by "previews", I mean both those images that are generated during initialisation and visual previews).

It'd be great if you could let us put previews on a different drive (I have a thunderbolt-attached m.2 SSD that I use for cache/previews for all of my other apps).

I'm enjoying LRT 6, great job (as usual :-)

Hi Chas, sorry, but that's not working. The idea is to have the previews in subfolders below the original files, this means they are on the same drive.
And due to performance reasons, both should be on rather fast drives.
In the beginning of LRTimelapse, the cached preview files were on a different location, but that caused a lot of confusion and lost previews when moving/copying files. That's why the concept is as it is.

Fair enough, I understand your reasoning.
