Device Save Location

memphisraynz · 03-07-2010, 11:41 PM

I have just bought myself a iriver Story and i am using Calibre for my library and to download the news from an RSS feed.

My question is, Is there a way to change the default save location for the device. Currently it save everything to the root directory. I need to be able to change it so the it saves to the "Book" folder, the Story cant seem to find the epubs if they are not in the folder.

At the moment when the News is automatically downloaded and saved to the Story it is saved to "root directory"\News\..... i want to change it to "root directory"\book\News\....

Thank you for your help in advanced

Use Preferences->Add/Save and click the send to device tab

Thanks i saw that section before.
This is what i currently have "book/{author_sort}/{title} - {authors}"
But i am still getting News saved to the root directory.
Have i done something wrong?

Thanks

It doesn't apply to the news downloads. I'll modify the iriver driver to do it for you in the next release.
