Everyone uses Calibre differently and it has been amazing to hear from some of you how you use it and how large your libraries are!
  • I'm thinking of adding support to change read status for example.
  • I'd also love to hear how it works on lower powered e-ink devices. Let me know if it is too slow.
  • Please let me know if languages are a problem.

While I still have access to my books, I've lost a very important functionality. Namely, I can't sync Note/Highlights/Reading Progress as previously.

Searching MobiRead didn't reveal any way to accomplish such synchronization using Calibre, or any other way that I could see. I probably missed something obvious.

I use both of my Kindle DEVICES as well as Kindle Reader on my phone and tablet. I'm guessing that there is not a local file common to both devices and software readers that might be manually transferred between devices when an annotation is added on one which needs to be available on the other?

Other synchronization ideas appreciated. Amazon could have allowed continued functionality for synchronization and still have prevented new downloads. ]]> Amazon Kindle RMOP https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=373891 Startup KOReader into a specific plugin interface https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=373890&goto=newpost Mon, 08 Jun 2026 16:25:13 GMT Hi there,

I'm using the Rakuyomi plugin as a Manga reader and library, and it has a nice cover view, etc etc. My goal is to startup KOReader right into the plugin. It doesn't have the option to do this built in, and generally I have to do search, page 2, Rakuyomi to start it each time.

How do I setup KOReader to automatically launch into the Rakuyomi plugin? I don't use KOReader for anything else and just want to jump right in when I switch from Nickel (reading). It doesn't really work like a 'home' folder per se, it's more like an alternate interface/library.

Thanks in advance for any advice. ]]> KOReader mgrimace https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=373890 Hello https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=373889&goto=newpost Mon, 08 Jun 2026 14:48:38 GMT Hello team, Very happy to join that forum, i hope to find and share if i can some good knowledge :) Have a nice day all :) Oxo Hello team,

This patch creates and managed collections using Calibre custom columns. I've set up my Calibre to create collections based on that on my Kobo's stock interface. So, I decided to replicate that on KOReader as well.

This is my first KOReader patch, so any feedback is welcome.

Check out the README for details.

However, justRead.app uses the Modification field in the OPDS feed to tell whether a book file has been updated and needs to be re-downloaded.

Unfortunately the calibre server's OPDS Modification field is taken from the database entry Modification field, which is changed by ANY change to the metadata of the book, and sometimes even by purely display changes. E.g. Just changing the display formatting of a Progress column to include a % sign at the end of the number results in ALL books in calibre having an updated Modification date.

Downloading several thousand books again just because I've changed the way a column is displayed in calibre is not optimal. :)

It would be really nice if the OPDS feed provided some way for clients to tell whether the book file that would be downloaded has changed from the last time the client downloaded the book.

I don't know about the internal details of the OPDS format, but would it be possible, for instance, to add in a hash of the book that's available for download? ]]> Server pdurrant https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=373880 Unable to download any metadata or covers https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=373879&goto=newpost Mon, 08 Jun 2026 00:51:55 GMT I am trying to create a Calibre database of my Kindle ebooks.

Do I need specific plugins?
