No idea if this is repeatable, but.....
All downloaded in Calibre 0.4.89 directly on OS X, and then transferred to the reader, with the exceptin of 'The Washington Post', which was transferred directly with the reader connected while Calibre downloaded.
Addtionally, I was unable to download USA Today, and kept receiving this error message (at least, this eveing, although prior I was able to download this newspaper).
---------------part of error message---------------------
Job: Fetch news from USA Today
tuple: ('ValueError', u'invalid literal for float(): .')
Traceback:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Applications/calibre.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python2.5/site-packages.zip/calibre/parallel.py", line 925, in worker
result = work(client_socket, func, args, kwdargs)
File "/Applications/calibre.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python2.5/site-packages.zip/calibre/parallel.py", line 883, in work
res = func(*args, **kargs)
----------more error message but it was bloody long------------
1) New York Times....wiorks
2) Newsweek....works
3) Globe and Mail....works
4) Washington Post.... says 'formatting' for about 5 minutes, reboots, and then if I try again the same thing happens. This is with output and single file save both set to EPUB
I'm willing to provide more in depth and rigorous test results (OS X/XP, Calibre/Sony Software and EPUB/LRF outputs), just tell me what you need and I'll do it.
To directly answer your question though, no, trying again after the reboot does not seem to help, although I will try again after I have more spontaneous reboots (Washington Post has never worked for me, New York Times seems to work 50/50, USA Today seems to work 60/40, and the other are all hit and miss).
I'm still learning the ropes of my 505, so maybe something obvious will pop up.
thanks for reply/reading.
Tom
