Ok, "horribly broken" just might be a slight overstatement, but broken at the very least.

This is certainly a problem with the nc software, as it has trouble reading the covers of epubs that work just fine everywhere else. I've spent too much time pouring over exploded epubs comparing one where it did read the cover against one where it didn't and I can't spot the magic incantation that will make it see the covers consistently. If there's anything calibre can do to work around this until the nc gets bug-fixed, that would be fantastic. Otherwise I'm going to just use aldiko on my nc in the meantime.


The steps that I outlined above that I did work every time for me (open/save the epub in Sigil, THEN reconvert epub-epub in Calibre and make sure the appropriate lines are added to the opf file and the appropriately names copies of the cover art are there). See my original post for full detail. I know it's a pain having to do all of that but this is a good workaround for me until Calibre can somehow work around this by itself, if possible that is...
