On the calibre side, the date is the "modification time" of the book format file itself. None of the dates in the database play a role. On CC's side it is the same thing, the modification time of the book file.

Well, yeah, the last book that was sent when I killed it would be the last book.

I was serious. Calibre said it was sending a total of 40 books. You killed it when calibre had just sent book 39.

The 40 books that were sent were all older books that I don't think had anything changed. I also did not see the book that should have been sent - I had just finished a library book so I deleted the epub in Calibre and replaced it with an empty epub so I could still have the book details in CC. This is all I expected to see sent, although I wouldn't have been surprised to see a few stragglers. Maybe you could show a message of how many books will be sent so there will be no surprises?

The number of books is displayed in calibre as part of the job info. The progress bar in CC shows how far along the process is. At one point we showed numbers there but for some reason we removed them. IIRC it was because the numbers changed very quickly.

I don't know why the new epub wasn't sent. If you run calibre in debug mode it tells you on a book-by-book basis the values of the time stamps being compared.

When I went to look at book details was when I was surprised to see that the synching was done so quickly. The message that CC was doing something had disappeared so I assumed synching was complete even though it seemed to me I missed seeing one the the standard messages while synching.

It sounds like there is a situation where no progress dialog is shown even though CC and calibre are still "talking". I need to find that.
