Please be considerate and move that discussion to a more appropriate thread, such as this one.
Thanks I moved post of the posts to that link today, I just edited them,
Spoiler:
and reposted them to that link, again it had to do with kfx since I was trying to compile that support into it, so in any case it was not exactly off-topic since I was talking about kfx support in the app, just not calibre or kfx output plugin, but that app could be good for if you say want icons on your device without having to download every icon for every ebook you may have, if you say to the kfx output plugin at all.

I was trying to use the information that user in the last posts I posted online at their website, in any case, I was able to get the con.exe working but not the gui.exe file, again it did have to do with kfx but not with calibre or kfx output plugin, it had to do with ExtractCoverThumbs support files for kfx icons to work with the kfx output format, I hope you understand me about that.


I have yet to try to change kfx to azw8 since that extension will open in Kindle Previewer 3, but the kfx extension doesn't open at all in the software that outputs the kfx format, so I think its better to stick with an extension like azw8 with kfx format in it, that makes sense right? so I was thinking of trying to make the default with kfx support first, then try to correct it to work with azw8 files so they have their icons instead. I am going to at this point to wait for an windows app, since I am tried of wasting my time trying to compile software that is clearly broken in some way or another. I don't plan on posting any more about broken software , we see if kindle even switches from azw3 to kfx at all, at this point the broken software is annoying me since I can't get it to compile without problems but any help would still be great on this matter, I just may not post anymore since I am out of ideas about how to make it compile without problems for kfx support.
