Hello,

I’ve just got a large base of free epubs in Spanish, they were interned to work with calibre, but seems the author deleted/forgot to upload the metadata.db file.

The good thing is that everything is well structured with folders following this pattern:

Author/Book/Files - where files are ALWAYS three files: ePub, OPF, and cover.

I tried to add the books with the add book option, but it took about 40 minutes to add 300 books. Is there any option to do not process books and just take its opf, cover and ePub to include it in the metadata file?

Cheers
