As I see, chrox in Github issues is trying various methods for invoking KPV for supported file types. I think, it will be worth to him to know that system Reader booklet supports plugins. Enabled plugins are listed in reader_plugins.xml. In Kindle Touch this file is located in /opt/amazon/ebook/config/, but it looks like in PW it's embedded into /opt/amazon/ebook/lib/ReaderSDK-impl.jar (but still in a form of easily accessible text file).

I believe, that filetype-dependent part of system reader code is located in plugins that are defined in reader_plugins.xml.

yifanlu tried to reverse engineer plugin interface for 5.0.0 and implement it's own, invoked for EPUB files: https://github.com/yifanlu/KindleEPU...lu/kindle/epub. It could help, but code is in unfinished state.

(I can't post to Github right now, sorry.)
