Hi Kerry,
When updating an existing deck, instead of adding a new deck... tap "Edit", the deck to update, then "Download". This will update the deck with the new text. It will ask if you want to keep your existing media files or re-download. The default is to keep your existing files to speed up the import time.
As for the media location (media directory URL), it's not what you were guessing. When you download/import a deck, it needs to be able to find your media files. You put them in a "matching media folder" on dropbox, so the app can find it. If you'd rather put the pictures somewhere else, then this media-dir option just tells the app where to find them. When importing, pictures will get imported at that time and get stored with the deck, just like usual.
