Is anyone else having an issue in the 4.17.xx updates when selecting certain chapters in the TOC or using the chapter skip buttons, it takes me to a random page in the middle of that chapter instead of the beginning of the file? I'm using EPUBs on my Clara HD, and didn't have this problem with the 4.15 version.

It doesn't occur with every chapter, but for the chapters that this does happen with, it does it consistently. Curiously enough though, if i select the hyperlink in the book's table of contents (if it has one) instead of the Kobo GUI, it takes me to the correct location. I tried looking at the HTML files in calibre, but I don't see anything in the file that would cause the reader to take me to the middle of the chapter, and all the hyperlinks in the TOC are correct. Another thing I noticed is that with the new chapter progress header, it will calculate the page count based on where the TOC incorrectly points to (for example, if the chapter is actually 20 pages long, but the TOC takes me to the 7th page of that chapter, it won't show a page count for the first 6 pages, but then on the 7th page, it will show "page 1 of 14"). Again, these are the exact same EPUB files that worked perfectly fine in 4.15.

I read through the whole threads about the new firmware and haven't come across anyone with this issue, so just posting here to try and see if there's any resolution for this. Thanks!
