Make Scrcpy save to my location of choice

[CummingCowGirl]

I enjoy using Scrcpy for various task on the phone but when I go to copy files from my computer to Scrcpy it defaults to copying them to Downloads even though I chose another folder on my SD card. Is there any way for me to make Scrcpy use the folder I manually choose? Thanks

On Arch linux - fully updated.

When you drag&drop, scrcpy does not have access to the application currently opened, so it has no idea that you are in a file manager in a specific folder.

You can configure the target directory globally: https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy#push-file-to-device

Thanks for the information however I just did scrcpy --push-target=/sdcard/Music/ and it still copied everything Downloads on the internal storage. I even attempted scrcpy --push-target="/sd card/Music/" and it errored out. I have attempted both lowercase and capital SD.

scrcpy --push-target="/SD card/Music/"

Please post the console output when you drag & drop a file to the scrcpy window.
