I think calibre puts the cover art in the .mobi file.
I've written a small script to automatically add a random ASIN and the EBOK tag to a .mobi file under linux.
I'm pretty sure the range of my random number is not great, but it works well.
Code:
#!/bin/bash
FLOOR=1000000
number=0 #initialize
NUMBER=$[ ( $RANDOM % 9999999 ) + 1000000 ]
str=$(printf "%04d" $NUMBER)
ASIN="B00"
ASIN=$ASIN$str
/path/to/mobi2mobi/binary/mobi2mobi --outfile "$1" --exthtype 113 --exthdata $ASIN "$1"
/path/to/mobi2mobi/binary/mobi2mobi --outfile "$1" --addexthtype 501 --exthdata "EBOK" "$1"
It takes a filename as parameter.
