Cannot browse to external USB drive

[jondo]

I have connected an external drive via USB-OTG and cannot browse to it.

:( I have this problem in other apps I have developed as well. Unfortunately I have no way to test if my changes are working correctly and no one has offered a pull request to fix the issue, so I'm unable to do anything about this at this point.

I appreciate any help offered on this ticket.

I can't help here in terms of code, but maybe provide a pointer: if slideshow used the Storage Access Framework rather than direct file access, it would not only see external USB files, but could also access external SD cards and termux' provider-exported home directory (which might help during development when no external hardware is available).

Same issue here, would love to see this as a feature some time soon!
