2nd Gen Kindle Fire (the one for $159)
I know that was the reason. I just had to disable the test because when I connected the new Fire (the first time today) it locked up when trying to get a list of books (only 20 books). Or I gave up after 5 minutes at 65% job complete. I think I'd better wait till it is done being tested, I feel I'm inadequate for this task.

Once it has compiled that list the next time is much faster. |

Working nicely on my samsung galaxy tab 7.7
The only oddity is that if I have music playing on my tab this gets stopped whenever I send/delete books to/from the device from within calibre. Jill |

calibre certainly isn't asking it to do that It's probably because that device doesn't support muti-tasking so when the MTP file transfer daemon is running other programs are paused.

My guess is that connecting via MTP stops all uses of "media" because the files might be overwritten. It would probably to the same thing if your were watching a video stored in a local file (not being streamed). |

Odd, the whole point of MTP over USBMS is supposed to be that it allows the simultaneous use of the file system by both the device and the computer the device is connected to.

calibre 0.8.70 released, with the MTP drivers no longer in beta (they are enabled without the use of the test_mtp_driver tweak).
Thanks to everyone that helped test the beta drivers. |
