Hi,

I'm probably one of those "techies" but I can remember the first time I wanted to set up COPS. Not all was obvious the first time, but I was able to work it out in the end. It's not that difficult once you know what to do.

On what hardware (NAS, Synology?) do you want to install COPS?

Or is your actual objective just to be able to use Marvin with Calibre and enjoy your books? Marvin can connect to Calibre without COPS trough OPDS. (Start Connect/share in Calibre -> Marvin the IP-address to connect to is shown in Calibre -> http://<IP-Caliber>:8080/feed.php -> and it should work!).

To edit the COPS config file (config_local.php) you first have to open (in a text editor such as notepad) config_default.php and then save it to config_local.php.
