Orizon Very slow book selection, paging, goto

[geoff65]

Hi,
I've just sent of a support request to Bookeen.
After nearly a year of regular use without pbs, my Orizon has started to hangup, leaving no option than a reset.
I tried reformatting my internal memory but to no avail.
I connected via Wifi to enet and my firmware was updated to 3.1.
Now I find that it takes 15-20mins to select a book from the library, and when I have it open it takes 15-20 mins again to do a goto page.
Am I the only one to have this pb.

Well, the orizon have never been really fast, but 15-20 min to open a book is definitely not normal. The worse i've seen was 1-2 minutes, because of a really badly codded ePub.

have you tried with an other book ?

[geoff65]

Just tried another book like you suggested Eowyn, lo and behold we are back to normal, why did I stubbornly insist with the same book which evidently must be badly coded!

[EowynCarter]

But that badly codded ?? wow !!

Go into the option, and un-select "use editor style" (not sure of the exact wording), might help.

Out of curiosity, what book is that ?

[geoff65]

not sure I understand your reply (these cmds are within Calibre?)

I can send you the book if you like

No, it's within the Orizon. In the main menu, either in "settings" or "layout" (or whatever they are called) there is an option to use (or not) the book styles. I think it's the top option of its submenu, but I don't have the Orizon here to test. Disabling the book styles can make the book look ugly, as you are basically disabling most formatting, but it can help in finding out the reason for the slowdown.
