i'm more the type to load the books and cbz directly in the sd card and then on the device.

i've tried to use ComicRack but the info file is not read.

two questions.

1 - kobo doesn't read the metadata in cbz and cbr because it's a thing the haven't thought or is more like the metadata file it's not in the format kobo is able to read?
Other than saying that the firmware doesn't read it, I don't know. Is there an official standard for the metadata? Or is it a de facto standard because ComicRack or something else does it that way?
[QUOTA]
2 - if I load the files on my sd and later, when i have to charge the battery, i connect my kobo to the pc and start calibre, i'll be able to modify the metadata for cbz files or do i have to load them with calibre?[/QUOTE]

The only way I know to do this is using my Kobo Utilities plugin and calibre.
