Cloud Pod sync with Google drive??

PostMon Jul 11, 2022 4:59 pm

On the box of the cloud pod it says it syncs to " dropbox & google drive"
however in the UI of the cloud store there is no such option to connect to Gdrive.
Will this be in a firmware update? Has anyone had any success?

currently, the entire Cloud Store series (Cloud Pod, Cloud Pod Mini) only works with Dropbox. Google Drive sync, and others will happen in future firmware releases.

if you simply look at this -
https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/produc ... iccloudpod
and scroll down, you will see it says "live sync to Dropbox".

If you go to this page -
https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/suppor ... loud-store
and download the Cloud Store manual - on page 8, you will see that they only refer to sync to Dropbox - not sync to Google Drive.

"But it says so right on the box" - I guess no one really relies on what it says on the box. One day, it will sync to Google Drive. Today is not that day.

The two links you shared now both reference Google Drive support, but only Dropbox is available in the Cloud Sync tab. Apparently today still isn't that day, but it seems like it should be today any day now.
