Given that if I run the server via the GUI, "what I'm seeing is what they are seeing", are you saying it's still possible to run an intake library that isn't shared for cleaning things up? So, for instance, a newly added book goes into intake, rather than my main library. Once that given book is all set with covers and meta, I can move it over to the "live" finished library? If that the general idea? Can I accomplish this via the GUI?

Is there anything that will allow reading location to be shared across devices? Whether it's Calibre itself (I read a post last night where David was going work on a new version on the server that allowed reading directly via a browser and there inference was that reading location would be saved), a third party app, out whatever, I don't care. I'm finding there are so many aspects to think through when setting this up it's making my head spin. I don't want to find out that I didn't plan for something that causes incompatibility in the future and kids of work changing direction. I truly appreciably your help and the knowledge that you're sharing with me. It's a huge help and blessing.
If you switch to the Intake Library, that is what will also be 'served', which is why I run the CLI server.
It is really simple. make a shortcut (batch)
Code:
"C:\Program Files\Calibre2\calibre-server.exe" --port 8083 --with-library C:\Users\MEMyselfAndI\MainLib
