Have been using Calibre a few weeks now, and think there might be a couple of issues with it. I'm using openSuSE Linux, have installed the latest update (0.7.55), and use a Kobo:
1) Calibre
consistently indicates that it's done transferring books (almost instantly; even the Jobs spinner says it's done) to the device before they're actually on it. I've had to start leaving Calibre running and the reader connected for as much as an hour to be sure things have been copied over before I disconnect/unplug. I've tried tranferring just a few (2 or 3) and even just one book at a time, and this still happens.
2) I wait until I have several (sometimes many) books to convert from other formats to epub; if it's more than just a few (half-dozen, maybe) it seems that the last book to be converted never finishes (looking at the jobs listing, several minutes have passed). If I exit Calibre, restart, and then convert that last book, it happens in a matter of just a few seconds just as the others did.
3) This last may be a Kobo issue, but Calibre doesn't see/understand when I have different SD cards in the reader. Because of the limitations of the Kobo, I find it easier to swap out SD cards and have to scroll through a hundred books, rather that put everything on one card and have to scroll through ALL of them.
If these are actual issues with Calibre (and not the user
), I can provide screen captures to show exactly what's going on.
Thanks.
