Thank you for your grreat plug-in, I have a problem and a feature request.

The problem is that since I updated my Kobo Aura HD to 3.12.0 using many of the function of your plug-in I receive an error message, see the attachment.
Calibre is updated to the last release, Kobo utilities was updated to 1.8.3, I tried to install also 1.8.8 beta, this didn't changed the error.
Any clue about the reason of this, and/or a solution?
Right now, I can't think of a reason for that. I suspect something is happening earlier to cause the problem. Could you run calibre in debug mode, try what you are doing here and post the log?

The feature request is to implement a tool to manually select and delete Shelves from the DB (If it is possible).
I ask this because i use the hidden smart shelves feature, but since a few time, all my Serie: and Author: shelves are duplicated.
Deleting them from device don't work
Disabling smart shelves don't work
Kobo Utilities also didn't find the duplicates, is finds all shelvese only 1 time, so "fix duplicate shelves" ends without deleting anything.
there are more than 300 shelves, considering also duplicates nearly 700 so browsing shelves in this conditions is impossible.
I haven't tried the smart shelves for a while. As an idea, it's good, but ended up with to many shelves for it to be practical for me.

From what you say, I think the device was showing two copies of each smart shelf. But, the database only had one. If that is the case, I can think of a way this might have happened. What you did is probably the simplest fix at the moment. Do you have a copy of the database from before fixing it? I'd like to have a look at it and see what was in it.

Adding a shelf delete is possible and should be fairly simple with some of the existing code. I'll add it to my list, but, I don't promise it any time soon.
