Hi,

I've followed pchrist7's post here (https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...&postcount=137) to try and implement getting a read status column in Calibre updated from my Kindle.

I've followed all of the steps but no matter how often I "Fetch annotations" on books I'm either reading, or have completely read, on my Kindle, I never see any data appended to the Comments field for the book in Calibre, and thus Read status never changes from "Not Read".

I'm running Calibre 3.5 (64-bit) on Windows 10 and have a Kindle Voyage running firmware 5.8.9.2

Is there a more current/reliable way of achieving this outcome?
If not, any suggestions on where I could start looking for why this doesn't seem to be working?
