Hello all,
I'm not sure if it's just me or not, I am unable to pull down metadata information from the inbuilt Google plugin. I had to stop the download job mid process and when I started it up I get this error, even on books I downloaded data about from a few minutes prior:
calibre, version 3.20.0
ERROR: No matches found: <p>Failed to find any books that match your search. Try making the search <b>less specific</b>. For example, use only the author's last name and a single distinctive word from the title.<p>To see the full log, click "Show details".

I'm not entirely sure how to proceed; does the 403 mean Google has banned me, or have I just really upset Calibre? I've tried reinstallation but the problem persists. As I said, I've tested it on books that was given metadata information from Google moments before there was a problem.
Other metadata sources are working fine.
Thanks in advance.
