@Rouge One - if you think you need a video then you're probably over-thinking it. To get started the only options for the calibre-server command you need worry about are --port and --with-library

Which operation system do you use - Linux, OSX or Windows?

On Windows a simple starting point would be something like this
  • WindowsKey+R and enter something like
  • Code:
    calibre-server --port 8082 --with-library "D:\Calibre Libraries\_Main"
  • Then in a browser URL bar enter something like
  • Code:
    http://127.0.0.1:8082/
  • The 127.0.0.1 is the IP address of the machine you're running the server on, I would use the machine name rather than the IP address, because its less likely to change.
  • Save that calibre server page in a bookmark/favourite, naming it something "Main Calibre Library"
If that works for you put the calibre-server command in a .bat file, and save it somewhere - e.g. in a Bat Files folder you can access from your desktop.

If you use OSX you need to read the note at the top of ==>> Command Line Interface
