- Check for multiple jackets - scans library for books that have more than one Calibre jacket (could be multiple of old style, or mix of new and old style)
- Remove selected jackets - works on the selected books to remove any Calibre jackets of either style
- Remove selected excess jackets - works on the selected books to remove all but the new Calibre jacket style
Do you see the holes? And are you happy with them or do we need to tweak the above... |
I like the above.

A good question. Now that I added the new jacket to the 1000+ you originally identified I want everything not identified in metadata to go away, but I can see where others would disagree.
It may or may not be practicable to differentiate between old jackets. The option to remove excess might be limited to jacket listed in metadata versus all others.

If you kept an old jacket then this is the outcome.
