Upgrade StorageBackup with file name too long
Dear all,
I wanted to backup my zotero folder on windows vista.
i wanted to create a dvd.
but the dvd software pop up an error on several file name which length are greater than 160 ! It is mainly http files.
perhaps it could be good to re-write the exporter in order to have shorter file name
Thanks you to adress that.

What's the filesystem of the DVD? According to Wikipedia, UDF should have a filename length limit of 255 characters. The latest version of Zotero will automatically shorten names if it runs into problems during file syncing (since different platforms have different constraints), but it doesn't otherwise place a length limit on filenames saved—and, if the file is saved successfully to the filesystem, I don't think it should.
