Hi,

my decoder store all the preview of video in a folder in the machine.
It grows in time, sucking space...

Is there a way to set the thumbnails in the device connected?

Ex: the USB 1 has 3 videos, the preview have to store in USB 1
The USB 2 has 10 videos and the thumbnails are archived in USB 2
The internet preview (it have not a device) are placed in decoder memory.

Thanks.
I was searching for same thing and found this:
https://www.reddit.com/r/kodi/comments/v...thumbnail/
as ref. indicated, put advancedsettings.xml to .kodi\userdata
xml:

<advancedsettings>
<pathsubstitution>
<substitute>
<from>special://profile/Thumbnails/</from>
<to>smb://SERVER/Kodi Thumbnails/STICK1</to>
</substitute>
</pathsubstitution>
</advancedsettings>

the solution for you would be something similar.
