MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - ebook-convert.exe doesn't work with deDRM plugin, unlike GUI or calibredb.exe

You can use GUI with deDRM plugin to add an encrypted azw book with no problem.

You can also use calibredb.exe:

Code:

calibredb.exe add book.azw

the deDRM plugin will be called automatically, and it will successfully add the book.

However, it seems ebook-convert.exe doesn't support plugin, or at least not the deDRM one.

It will just error out at mobi6.py L157 due to (obvious) `DRMError`.

According to what kovidgoyal said before, I assume ebook-convert.exe is supposed to work exactly the same as conversion from the calibre GUI, so I think it's bug.

Thanks for your time!
