Question Calibre & Covers: Adding books through Calibre vs dragging and dropping?
Hi!

This is not a problem, I was curious about something in Calibre's behaviour.

I plugged my Glo into Calibre this afternoon to remove and add a few books. About 2/3 of my books show covers on the "Books Details" sidebar in the "Show Card A" window when the title is clicked on. Those are the books I sent over to the SD card via Calibre. The rest are books that I dragged and dropped onto the SD card by way of Windows. Those show a generic brown book in the cover area of the "Books Details" sidebar.

Aside from deleting and resending those books back through Calibre, is there any way to get Calibre to show those book covers when clicked on? I tried refreshing the metadata on the device and the card, but that didn't work. It's not a problem, I don't NEED it to be displayed, I'm just curious if it were possible.

Thanks.
