I discovered this 'feature' accidentally
First: you do not need to put files into a Zip/RAR that can be added 'as is' .
Second: your reading device may not like your 'odd' format choice.
Third: Set cover from selected format does NOT function when inside a Zip/RAR
Conversion/Viewing seems to work, but I can't say that there are NO changes. Multiple formats within the archive definitely chokes conversion.
I only document the format contained to be clear on how I started.
