I'm trying to use the Calibre CLI for the check-library feature to check for new books not yet in the database, and to add them automatically.

Here's the syntax I'm using:

Code:

calibredb check_library --library-path :D:\My Media\eBooks" > "C:\temp\calibreresults.txt"

I'm running this from the Calibre2 folder itself in a command prompt. When I run it (even with elevated Windows privileges), it just hangs forever, and never completes. I only have a few hundred books in my library. Nothing is written to the output file either.

Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
