ERROR: Could not open ebook: Unknown book type
Hello and thanks in advance for any assistance with this error.
It seems that a batch of ebooks have headed south into unknown book type territory. I'm not sure if it's something I did, or if the books were corrupted to begin with. I've double checked the input/output formats, ran the plug in "Quality Check", etc. I did try opening one of the unknown book types with mobipocket reader and it wouldn't open. 1) What else can I check/double-check on the error? 2) How can I quickly find what books are "unknown"? Opening each one to test will just take too long, hoping there's a faster way. Additional info: calibre, version 0.8.50 ERROR: Could not open ebook: Unknown book type: '\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00' Traceback (most recent call last): File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\viewer\main.py", line 63, in run File "threading.py", line 483, in run File "site-packages\calibre\ebooks\oeb\iterator.py", line 207, in __enter__ File "site-packages\calibre\customize\conversion.py", line 208, in __call__ File "site-packages\calibre\ebooks\conversion\plugins\mobi_in put.py", line 32, in convert File "site-packages\calibre\ebooks\mobi\reader\mobi6.py", line 83, in __init__ MobiError: Unknown book type: '\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00' Thanks again.
