I uninstalled every modification on my Kindle (except for KAUL and Librerator of course) but the problem persisted.

The only thing that could contain the root of the problem was the "documents" folder itself.

So, first I suspected the collections to cause the problem, as they were created with Calibre's plugin, which used to be very buggy when I was using it back in the day. That didn't change a thing, Librerator still reported "invalid capture index" error.

OK, so I decided to delete all the files from the "documents" folder (except for KUAL of course). It works - no more "invalid capture index" error.

So now I'm wondering which file exactly causes the problem. Is it the name of a file that is problematic or something else? Polish diacritics? Too many files?

I have my buggy "documents" folder copied on my HDD (178MB of files), I'm attaching the list of files in this folder. (Those are mainly books, articles and webpages sent via Calibre and Readability, in English and Polish language). I can upload the files if it helps.
start with the simplest assumption - only one of the books and/or collections causes the problem . . . .

then do a binary search for the problem -
put 1/2 the books and/or collections back on -
if problem reoccurs, then problem is in that half -
if problem does not reoccur, then the problem is in that half you did not put on -
eleminate the 1/2 which does not cause the problem -
repeat with the half that does cause the problem by choosing only half of it.
repeat ^^^

For 256 books - will take at most 8 tries to find it.

If more than one book and/or collection causes the problem - then when doing the above, be prepared to find more than one "1/2" sample to cause the problem - adapt your search testing in that case.
