Hi

A year ago Chaley and eschwartz helped me by creating a python script for me which I then used to create an empty txt file in Calibre. This was so I could send Calibre metadata only to my Kindle Fire. I want the metadata on my fire but not 3500 ebooks.

I recently moved my Calibre library to dropbox and also my pc was 'serviced' during which calibre was removed and had to restore it from a back up, and now the python script no longer works, and I have no idea why. I've tried for days to work it out but I keep getting errors on the command prompt.

What i'm basicly asking is since the original script was created a year ago has anything changed in Calibre Companion that would alllow me just to send metadata or is it the books or nothing?

Thanks
