Does Calibre support multimedia

gimley · 08-19-2012, 12:26 AM

Hello,
I am a newbie to the forum. I have gone thru the plug-ins but have not been able to find a plug-n that supports Multimedia in Calibre.
Does anybody know of a plug-in that supports multi-media:swf or html5.
I have made a trial e-pub with a swf embedded but Calibre does not read it.
Any chance of Calibre supporting multi-media. It is otherwise a perfect answer to e-pub reading and we recommend it to all who want to use an e-pub on tablets and mobile devices as well as on PC's
Many thanks in advance for any info.

Flash is never going to be supported. The html 5 video tag works on linux and os x (depending on the codecs available on the system), but not on windows. I currently have no plans for getting it working on windows, patches are welcome.
