NOTE: THE BINARIES ARE ONLY FOR DR1000 with the latest R2.0beta firmware!!!
Thanks Iņigo, Roderick and Glenn for your comments.
This version aligns the dr1000 version with the dr800+ thumbnail patch from Iņigo. During installation all thumbnails are removed from global.db and copied to /System/.covers to limit the size of the global.db file. This might take some time if you have a lot of documents. The script (borrowed from dr800+ installation) makes a copy of your existing global.db file, but if you want to be sure, make an extra copy yourself. See also the remarks and warnings in the
dr800+ thread.
This version adds (see also \Programs\_mackxpatch\readme.txt):
- Apply patch from Iņigo to store thumbnails in filesystem (modified behaviour)
- Allow .drinfo files to set initial values (title, author, tag, thumbnail) for new documents. (See _mackxpatch\examples.)
- Add Document-Info-Dialog with information stored in global.db
- Use icon for Recently Used from dr800+
- add logging to mdbindex from dr800+ (controllable in settings).
- Add JIT view ('Raw Card') to show direct information from the SD-card, by-passing global.db.
- Fix: pressreader makes popupmenu crash
- Add new settings dialog to configure indexing (enable logging, disable indexing and threshold indexing)
- Integrated Russian letterbar patch from yuri_b (Needs restart to show after selecting language)
OPEN ISSUES:
- I did not yet update the documentation ...
So, my standard disclaimer: This is also a big hack, only very limited tested by me and less mature then 'normal', so my advise is to use it on the QEMU first. (Only the dare-devils should install it on their DR1000. :-)
I advise new DR users to first play a few month with the original firmware before switching to this patched version.
The new features are getting more complicated and my explanation skills are not that good, so feel free to ask questions here (after reading the UserManual ).

Any comments or improvements appreciated.
