The download process of metadata and covers automatically will search the web and download the information 100 books at a time. (per job)

Unfortanetely it waits for human input to apply the metadata to the library after it downloads it.
Does anyone know how to bypass the human acknowledgment so it just downloads and applies it automatically?

Thanks
Add from ISBN (an empty book) does (attempt) download metadata.

Be kind to the FREE servers and only do no more than 100 at a time.
Giving it a rest. At some point we will just get banned (has happened) if we abuse the service.
