Sometimes there is no cover or a low-res/bad one...changing it within the epub need some tools like Sigil and way much time than the calibre "change the cover" metadata way.
If we could choose wich cover to use ; the build-in cover within the epub or the calibre metadata epub cover...it would be really really great 
Since there is this (awesome) feature of using the cover on the current reading book on shutdown...it would be great to implement this little tweak. |
My old Calibre 'Copy Cover' plugin can still be used on your PRS-650 for those epubs without a suitable built-in cover plus non-epubs like PDF, RTF, TXT.
Once it has copied all your desired Calibre covers to the Sony you will need to decide whether you want to use the PRS+ Standby Image Type option
Current Book Cover or
System Standby Function, for each particular book. Switch between them as necessary.
Another Calibre plugin you may find useful is the
'Modify epub' plugin, which has an option to update the existing epub built-in cover. It won't work with all epubs (e.g. DRM'd ones) because it will depend on how the epub specifies its cover. It should work fine on any epub originally created by Calibre. Of course you will then need to resend the updated epub to the Sony.
