Don't really understand what opds does though.

How long does generating catalogues normally take for about 160 books? (Been going for over 4 hours now without getting past the first step).

Then when all this is done, do you just use the Kobo web browser to go to the Dropbox website and download the books?

Thanks,

Once you have an OPDS server available you could add it to the OPDS sites/servers Koreader lists in its menu. The Local calibre content server is one of the ones that are supplied with Koreader, along with "Project Gutenberg", "Feedbooks", "ManyBooks" and "Internet Archive". To add yours, just select "Add OPDS catalog" and enter a Catalog Name of your choice and the catalog URL. Then you will be able to select it from the list and access the catalog as you have defined it.

Luck;
Ken

P.S.; I am not sure that Dropbox will let you serve your calibre library to a "Public" folder anymore.
