o now you can throw in an different file with the same name and I can test if it's working.
For example, you could place your old pofo.zip back for a while.
If you want to test it also, use this line (1058) with the added -m :
python3 - https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/$1 -m -P "$2"

It seems to work well!

@dteam

Can you put in a file for me so I can test it too ?

Can you put first a dummy "videopin.zip" onto the google drive ?
And after I acknowledge, the real one ?

DTEAM

@folly
I put an arcade "artwork"
look for berzerk.zip

Folly

@dteam

Got it.
You can now update berzerk

DTEAM

@folly
Done, I replaced them by a dummy

Folly

@dteam

Too bad, the file isn't updated.

It could depend on the time difference.
Perhaps it's a good idea to leave the file on google drive, so I can test tomorrow again.

Good idea ?

DTEAM

@folly
Google wrote "file with no data"
I did another dummy.

Folly

@dteam

Ok I will try again.

I looked in the log and the file isn't updated.

Folly

@dteam

Can you keep the dummy file for a while on google-drive ?

I will test again tomorrow.

DTEAM

@folly
No problem

Folly

@dteam

Is it working for you now or didn't you test ?

Have to go now.
Thanks for the effort ;-)

DTEAM

@folly
Instead of replace it by dragging I have deleted it and reloaded it. So now it's not version 1 or 2 (like Google Drive wrote), it's a new file. Is it change something on your side?

Folly

@dteam

I tried now (it's now 22 sept 7:49 on my clock).
It worked.

Perhaps we have to try your trick again and see if this works instandly.
We can test around the same time as yesterday.

DTEAM

@folly
I replaced the artwork file (berzerk.zip) by a new dummy with different content inside.

Folly

@dteam

A bit later now but I just tried and it downloaded OK ;-)

Folly

@dteam

~~Do you have time to throw in the original berzerk again ?~~
Seems you don't have time right now to test if files get downloaded instantly after adding.
No hurry we can test it later.

I would like you to add the artwork for videopin for mame .
It's described here :
https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/31255/atari-video-pinball-backdrop
Artwork :
https://www92.zippyshare.com/v/9Gp7lzW5/file.html
It comes from "mame202artworkall".
Perhaps there is more, in there, that can be added.
Though, for lr-mess there isn't a solution yet.

videopin.zip is now in the GoogleDrive Artwork folder. Thanks for the download link (JDownloader must be used for that link 😲 OMG)

Thanks for adding them.
We didn't try the instant test with google-drive, but I am confident it will work for us adding the -m option.

I will add the -m option in the script soon on github.

Indeed, i tried that zippyshare now.
Damn, it worked so nice the last time I used it.
Looks like they have changed things.
Gives me a headache now, I should not use it any more.

Btw. just search google or duckduckgo for "mame202artworkall"
Perhaps you can use these too.

Last few days I am reading the e-book on how to use the git command.
I learned quite a bit already, as it contains very useful information.
If you are interested too, you can find the e-book through this link :
https://git-scm.com/docs/gittutorial

If we know how, then we can use this information for our project.
