Most of the time the eBook Viewer that is built in calibre fails on me.

Sometimes it takes a long time for me to skip the first page (cover) of a book. "Loading Flow"

Other times it never skips to the next page and it just freezes up and crashes.

I am wondering if there is any workaround?

Or if I am the only one having this issue?

I only use the eBook Viewer to check the conversion results before I move the book to my Kindle. I don't use it to read an entire book.

I also wonder if it has an issue skipping the cover that sometimes the image cover can be huge in size? Some ebooks have a large size cover. I tend to edit the metadata and choose a smaller sized image when I can (Amazon).

But like I said before, I find the eBook Viewer quite buggy.
