So if you intend to edit the books to fix them, you can do so right from the search results window in calibre.

If instead you want to process them at a later date - well either just run the QualityCheck again at that time (since it is fairly quick). Or select all those books and via the bulk metadata dialog add a tag or set some custom column for you to search that way. However I would always just run the QC again.

Is there some particular reason why the above approaches do not work for you? I see what you mean about the log, the reason it is like that is just code laziness on my part (I would have to write a little extra to read the actual title/authors from the database and pump out to the log). If its a showstopper I can add it for a future release, but I'm curious as to why you feel using the log and manually typing in searches from it rather than just using the search results is better for you?
Thanks Kiwidude for the reply,

I suppose it's just a personal preference that I save it to a notepad file, I don't really want to add tags to the books and I know I can save the search in Calibre but I just open Calibre with the Notepad file side by side, scroll down to the first book in the list have a look at and try and fix the TOC, then cross it off the Notepad file, then hopefully after time the file will be blank as this will take me a bit of time, some of the books have bad TOC or none, I just thought that after doing a check with your plugin then viewing the log and option to save the info to the clipboard, would people need the file path in that info, just the book and resulting info in red would do me but as I say it's just my preference...

Many Thanks
Jay
