[chirp_users] CHIRP Tips Videos

[Danny K5CG]

Nice video.

It believe it would be useful for both Windows and Linux versions to be able to define a custom path for stock config files.

I use Nextcloud extensively and I created a folder for configurations for all sorts of programs, Filezilla xml site definitions, mRemoteNG xml, etc. This configuration folder is sync'd across every PC I use. This could be used for any cloud integration like OneDrive or Google drive and is independent of %APPDATA% and would never be lost unless you intentionally delete it.

Thanks

Actually very good! I think some of those who make videos all the time 
could take a few tips from how this one was done.

However, there are a lot of other things you can do with CHIRP that never seem to get covered. Lately as I have helped people adjust to some of the things that are different in CHIRP next, I've been thinking that it might be nice to have a set of very short to-the-point videos that cover some of the more obscure features. Things you may or may not know about, or that you feel you don't quite understand enough to use properly, or things that have been added and gone unnoticed. Videos covering how to do something in CHIRP legacy may no longer be accurate or helpful today.

I'm an engineer and I'm only good at drawing straight lines and right angles. I don't want to make movies, I want to work on CHIRP. But, I can make short low-budget demonstration videos with dry voiceovers and probably help explain things better, so I figured I might give it a go.

I have at least a few other topics that I think are not often well understood that I can cover in future videos, and let me know if you have other ideas. I want to keep these mostly radio-neutral, meaning they should be about how to use CHIRP in general, and not how to program a UV-5R. Josh already has that sort of thing covered. If it seems like making more of these is worth the trouble, I'll do that.
