[SteamGridDB] Using "download-fake-png" downloads two .webp files

[MemeMan404]

By default, the "download-fake-png" config is "true" for SteamGridDB. It is supposed to download a "fake PNG" version of an animated file alongside the original file (the website provides both). However, when downloading, it instead just downloads two of the same .webp, ending in "_01.webp" and _02.webp" instead of one file having the .webp extension and the other the .png extension.

Example of an animated asset providing the original .webp format and the "fake png" format: https://www.steamgriddb.com/grid/374270

The png extension of the fakepng file gets updated to webp by the adjust-extensions option because it actually is a webp and not a png file.

$ file 78c9da25585688cd7bd6e73e40806015-fakepng.png 
78c9da25585688cd7bd6e73e40806015-fakepng.png: RIFF (little-endian) data, Web/P image

Both files, webp and fakepng, are the same, it seems.

My apologies, but is there any way to disable adjust-extensions for only a specific extractor in the configuration file, instead of having to type -o adjust-extensions=false into the terminal or setting it to false globally?

It can only be enabled/disabled globally at the moment, like all other downloader options.

May I ask what the point of these fake png files is?
Is it just a way to essentially download a webp file renamed to png?

Since those fake PNGs are always the second file, you could use the following to overwrite the extension value to always use .png:

"filename": {
    "num == 2": "{game[id]}_{id}_{num:>02}.png",
    ""        : "{game[id]}_{id}_{num:>02}.{extension}"
}

Simply put, the purpose of the fake PNG is so that Steam recognizes it, as Steam only supports .pngs for custom banners or grids. The fake png allows you to trick steam and have animated assets.

The code you provided seems to have worked, thanks!
