Kobo can be a bit tricky to interpret cover metadata.

I can agree with a lot of this,but then,if it should be happening at the first time, it should be happening on the second reader the first time to, and that isn't the case (for me, as I do't see any reaction anymore from "molier" anymore which is a bit strange when you report something and then don't respond anymore)
My current situation, i have 2 Glo Hd's (identical firmware) which contain identical books.
Lets call them device A and B, when I add books I add them on both,but if it was the metadata then the books should have no cover on both.
But the book who has no cover on device A,have it on device B and vice versa.
If book "sample1" would have an error in the metadata, it should be wrong displayed on both device A and B if the wrong metadata was the cause.
But it doesn't, it seems randomly.
I use only calibre to send the books to the devices, I don't have even kobo's desktop software installed.
By example, title "sample1" will have a cover error at device A, not on B.
Title "sample2"will have an error on device B, but not on A.
If it was the metadata, both books will have an error on both devices.
I don't know why it happens.. maybe there is a hole on the internal cards where the covers leaking trough, i will watch my pillow the coming days
