[PocketBook Inkpad3] Remove uploading to "books" root folder
Hi,
I have PocketBook Inkpad3 and Calibre always uploads my books into /books/<template> instead of expected /<template>. Can anyone advise how to instruct it not to prefix upload path with "books"? |

right click on the device icon in calibre and configure it. Although depending on whether the driver for that device hardcodes the /books or not, you may or may not be able to change it.

This is exactly what I did.
It is possible. Is there a way to view a code of pocketbook device driver? |

Kovid, I looked into manual and did some Googling. I didn't find device plugins and, specifically, I looked for Pocketbook 701 plugin which seems supporting Pocketbook 740 as well.
Can you direct me to a URL of device plugins? Thank you, L |

No one has mentioned it, but cramming many files/folders into the root of a file system is not a good plan (FAT16 had a very low number of entries before it ran out of space, FAT32 relieved the pressure.)
