I've got things working now and am rolling forward.
Just so you can have an idea of what I'm doing, I am using the opds xml to create a new ajax style front end that is fresh and has what I hope is a better ui. It will be responsive so that mobile will be automatic.
I did a mock up using calibre2opds but I like the structure of the included server.
The
video is on youtube
Edit: sorry about the quality it clears up 12 seconds in. You miss the file download but you get the idea. There is a better version at
vimeo
I would like to perhaps add on the fly conversion to the web app for the times people like me would like to read on the phone via epub when the kindle is my main device.
Please let me know if this is something you would like to have in calibre itself because I can do it hacky-style just for me or do it "right" for integration.
Thanks again for the help..
