          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 ?

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

              Ok I will try again.

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

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

                I will test again tomorrow.

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

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

                      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?

                        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.

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

                              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.

                                            This is so incredibly frustrating. The old artwork files from Mr Do's site work perfectly in mame2003plus, and Video Pinball lines up beautifully, but Video Pinball has no sound in mame2003plus. It has sound in mame2010-2016, but mame2010-2016 don't support the old artwork files.

                                            The NEW type of artwork file, meanwhile, lines up all the LEDs in Video Pinball properly with the backdrop in mame2010-2016, BUT you can't see the ball, targets or flippers :(

                                            ALL THE PIECES ARE HERE, DAMMIT!

                                            Raspberry Pi 3b and 8GB Raspberry Pi 4, both running Retropie 4.7.1 installed from scratch using Raspberry Pi Imager, with wired keyboard, wireless mouse and double arcade joystick attached.
