I downloaded the dictionary from your link in post #35. It works as I would expect when installed as an "extra" dictionary named dicthtml-li.zip. It should also work for you if you've followed all surquizu's step-by-step correctly.

This is the SQL I used to insert the extra entry in the Dictionary table.
Code:
INSERT INTO "Dictionary" VALUES('-li','Extra:_li (Littré)','true',41632856,'','true');
It's important that the red part of the Name column matches the above.



I also tried my own suggestion from post #37 of installing it as a -fr-fr dictionary. I see what you mean about it selecting the "Français - English" dictionary instead when you try to use it.

After a bit of experimentation I could get it to work but only after I uninstalled the dicthtml-fr-en.zip dictionary - so not a satisfactory solution.
The trick I suggested does work OK as a simple method for installing a second "English" dictionary as "English - English". I must remember not to suggest it to anyone in future for any language other than English. Live and learn.

I get this all the time on my ClaraHD and Forma (but none of the other Kobos). I don't think it has anything to do with your dictionary problem.
