I have two French dictionaries in mobipocket format, and some French books in my Cybook. The problem is when I look up a word in a French book, only one of the dictionaries is searched, while the other seems to be used for English books (I've had some matches from this other dictionary when looking up a word in English).

I understand this is probably a matter of language settings, however both dictionaries seem to have the same language, according to mobi2mobi:

Code:
MOBIHEADER language: 1036 - 12 - 1 - FRENCH -
while the French books are created with html2mobi, and have:

Code:
MOBIHEADER language: 12 - 12 - 0 - FRENCH -
I didn't find any significant difference between the two dictionaries. The "right" one seems to be utf8-encoded, larger, and I have it in the SD card. The "wrong" one is latin1-encoded, smaller, and it's in the main Cybook memory. (I still haven't tried moving them.) Any ideas on how to fix the "wrong" one?
A problem related to formats or cybook would probably be better handled in the Cybook group but as I recall the Cybook needs the dictionary to be in the main memory, not on a card.
