Hi Kovid,

OK that helped a lot. It pointed me to a DRMed book in PDF format that Calibre wasn't handling politely.

I pulled that file out of my library that I'm pushing to the device and am re-testing. Looks like it's running smoothly now.

Apparently when it couldn't set the metadata for the DRMed file, it blew up the job.

here's your debug text

Thanks a bunch for the help.

If I can offer a suggestion for a future release - if there's any way to flag a specific DRMed file and not load it to the device, rather than crashing the whole app.

Other than that, fantastic tool. Worlds better than the one the Sony Reader comes with. And where else can you get such a fast answer to a technical question :-)
