Hi,
I have looked everywhere but I can not seem to find a proper explanation. I have an Android phone running DJI GO4 for my Mavic Pro Platinum. I would like to know how I can record and cache everything to my sd card in my phone instead of caching in my phone's storage.
When I check the option "cache locally when recording", everything is stored as it should on my phone's storage.
However, when I check the option to cache to my SD Card, it even shows a path for my storage, but nothing is recorded on it. The folder isn't even created.
Can someone explain this to me ?

Hi there, so you have the option to store the caches video to the external SD card but when you enable it, the videos are still restored on the phone storage, right? Could you please provide me with screenshots of the DJI GO 4 app of the General Settings interface and the folders of the external SD card? I will forward it to our engineers to check. Thank you.

It works perfect for me. This is the path which it use.
  
It is card which I have used in P3S and Mavic. Edited: Forgot, you might have to use both "cache locally when recording" and cache to SD card" .
I use both and it works.

Yes, I have tried with both options on, cache locally + to sd card, and only to sd card and I have Nothing. I will send you the screenshots asap.

Thank you so much for your update. Could you please also provide me with the screenshot of the folder of the route displayed on the SD card? I mean the screenshot of the route /storage/3235-3861/DJI/dji.go.v4/DJI_RECORD/, if the folder is not created, please screenshot the deepest route that you can enter.
If you don't mind, could you please tell me the mobile device and Android version of it?
Thank you so much for helping.

I am just trying to do this as well on a Sony 3 Compact Tablet.  I don't use the Tablet for anything else except the Mavic for DJI Go 4 app.  The internal memory of 16Gb is nearly full, so I have a 32Gb SD card installed. I even manually made a folder for the storage of video but I keep getting a little tutorial which at the bottom says "Set Here". so I do and then it goes back to the settings screen on the app and has a message "Failed to set SD card path. Follow the tutorial to reset"

Any ideas?

Create the folder "DJI/dji.go.v4/DJI_RECORD" in the root of your SD card
After in the application DJI GO 4  select the root of your SD card (and not a specific folder)
and it will work

i was also having this problem, i too unchecked local storage and have the exact same issue as OP described. I will check mark store locally to see if it then will store to sd card, kind of a bummer you have to fill up storage locally to fill up storage on SD card. huge bummer.

Is "Cache to SD Card" option only available on Smart Phones running Android OS?

Option does not show up on CrystalSky running Android OS.

I'm sure this is just new user ignorance but whenever I try to enable cache to SDCARD I get a popup about "Path Tutorial" which has no relevance to my Android tablet/phone.  Am I going about this the wrong way?

And this is where you select the path.

Best is to first make the folders on the card.
Dji\dji.go.v4\DJI-RECORD.
Then when it come to this 3. picture click the card icon and select.

How do you remove the path once you have set it?  I need to remove and try again except this time to the root on the SD card.
