I did some experiment regarding the cover.
If you put a png image on following path (where 1 is internal storage, and very large number for sdcard, and yes there is typo on chache)
Code:
internal memory/InkPad 2/system/cover_chache/1/books/sample.cbz.png
and put the book on
Code:
internal memory/InkPad 2/books/sample.cbz
,
it will display the cover in library menu.
Here are the screenshot and the file I used for experiment.
Calibre didn't send/create that file if you send cbz to the device. I'm not sure how complex it is, if after opening up a cbz/cbr,or any recognisable file for pbimageviewer, the app resize the first image and save it as png on that directory. So far the cache on my folder has 614px height, although some are smaller.
Recent read and recent book cache is in different folder, they use:
Code:
internal memory/InkPad 2/system/cache/desktop/cache.dat
rb denote recent book opened, and t denote recent book added. I successfully copied a thumbnail and put it with 1.png to display that as the first recent book thumbnail on the home screen. However, when I select different book, the system regenerate rb thumbnail from 1-9. The file that I copied as 1.png got removed and not renamed to 2.png. So the app potentially could set the most recent book thumbnail image after opening up a book. But if another book is selected, that image will get lost.
If I have time I will try play around with the code to see whether it can be done from the app.
