Hey, I'm working on that!

(And seriously, I'm about to lock that Kepub-cleaner module down. If anything's wrong, I need to know now.)

Thank you for taking the time and effort to do this!!

For some reason or other I've been a bit reluctant to use obok ... but I'll definitely use your version.

Do you intend it to be available as a Calibre Plug in or via Alf?

And to keep this post on topic .... I currently only use Sony PC for Reader to import my epubs and never have to bother using the ADE program at all. Of course that won't be much use if only epub3's begin to be delivered.

The URL you want is http://acsepub.contentreserve.com/fu...nt/statuscheck. So all you do is take the server URL and tack on /statuscheck to make the URL you want.
This isn't working with a book from Google http://books.google.com/books/acs4/f...t/statuscheck/ just takes me to Google books. Since it has acs4 in the url I would think it's CS4 and not CS5, but who knows.

Please post the ACSM file and I'll have a look and see if I can find the correct URL.

It is an update to the Modify Epub PI, and has nothing to do with DRM whatsoever.

The URL you tried was correct it's just not available for unauthorised access. (I get a 401 error when I try with wget).

However if you're trying to confirm they're using ACS4 then I believe they are. Firstly due to acs4 in the URL as you said, secondly see here.

HTH

You misunderstand, I fear. I'm adding two modules to the existing "Modify EPUB" Calibre plugin - one to strip out empty SPAN elements and do similar cleanup, and another to clean up the excess code left behind after DRM is removed from a kepub.

In other words, I'm doing post-removal code cleanup, not actual DRM removal. This is more akin to removing the META tags that ADEPT leaves behind, except that the K-DRM's traces are a lot more pervasive.

Perhaps you should team up with jgoquen; in his KoboTouchExtended and Kepub Output plugins he's doing the reverse...

But, Modify ePub is the best place for Rev. Bob's code.

You mean ACS 5? (ADE is what books are read/downloaded with, ACS is what they're downloaded from and what applies the DRM)


Not sure, but according to the status check URL for Kobo they're still using ACS 4.0.3
