Hello,

I have always sent my sideloaded books using Calibre (usb) to my kindle PW2 and the book cover appeared just fine in grid view. But the last time I tried to do this, the book covers of the new books started disappearing after a few seconds/minutes. The old books covers are fine, but the new ones keeps vanishing. I tried deleting and resend one of the old books, and the cover disappeared as well. So I'm guessing the problem isn't the book, but something with the kindle or calibre, but I don't know what.

I've been trying to solve this for a week, but with no luck.

If I send by email, the cover stays. But I prefer my books showing in "books" and the page numbers... And since it worked until now I hope to solve it someday.

I already tried reseting the kindle, but didin't solve it. I tried using the ASIN fix, but it didn't solve it either.

I'm using the latest calibre (3.27.1) and latest kindle firmware (5.9.6.1).

Any ideas in what I can do to solve this? Or whats the origin of the problem?

Thanks!
