Hi GoSharks!
Yup- I removed the generated covers (to my hard-drive as they were nice)- but left the basics there of course (blanks for other features). Not using pinfo yet, just cover and black.
The strange thing is everything was working before, so I'm suspicious of either necessary rebooting or perhaps a bad update somehow. Note that I didn't see changes in folder modification dates or files with a cursory glance. Python however did show a newer folder date when updated.
Thanks for all suggestions!
ps- if there's a method for uninstall that doesn't lose the stock screen-savers, I guess I could go that route?
QUESTION: Is an ASIN embedded into the book necessary for the screensaver hack to work? I see that it uses the ASIN to name the screensaver it makes, but what if it doesn't have an ASIN (i.e. converted via Calibre)?
