Thanks for the quick response.
Attaching books would require me stripping the DRM and then putting them out there in the public arena. That is not something I will do. I can't distribute those, even for a noble cause such as this (for you/others to troubleshoot). Such is the stupid DRM world we live in.
I will be glad to help in other ways if possible - sending a log file or something else that Calibre (or Linux) may make available for troubleshooting.
I tried about a dozen of my books. They ALL behaved as I illustrated above, not one single one behaved normally. This test was done for books that I bought from Amazon, books that I got free from Amazon (Prime), and books that I bought from B&N years ago. I tried AZW3, EPUB and MOBI formats - these all failed in the same manner.
Obviously, this must be something specific to my particular computer/OS/installation since you cannot duplicate it, yet it is 100% repeatable for me on every book I tried.
This is not a big deal for me, since I read my books on an eReader, not in the Calibre viewer. I just happened to notice this behavior randomly, I have no idea why I was originally jumping forward in books, or even why I was using the Calibre viewer in the first place. I was just playing around I guess.
