Hi,
Okay in its own thread, the topic is to create a metadata tweaker that will work with dual mobis as created by kindlegen so that people can tweak the metadata but NOT split the mobi 7 and mobi 8 parts.

Right now it would need the following capability:

1) add EXTH 501 element with value EBOK to both headers so that cover display will work better for some devices

There also seems to be some interest in allowing a uuid style ASIN element to be changed to something else but I am not sure why this is needed for something that was a personal document since it would not be an exact match to any official ASIN from Amazon's catalog.

I did not think kindlegen even generated an ASIN field? Does it?
