Pocketbook PB740 collection support
This has been asked before - but the answers ("no support") don't convince me.
After many years with an Aura HD I moved on to a larger display (mainly for some needed pdf). After searching for some specs like SD-Card or "Collection"-support I ended up with a "Pocketbook InkPad 3" or internally "PB740".
This reader supports "Collections" (internal search name: "collection").
On the Aura HD I was able to configure the Calibre Kobo Driver to take a user defined column (say e.g. "#sammlung") as a cross reference value for the device data field. Thus any transmission from Calibre to the Aura HD updated the "collection" field in accordance with the Calibre data base. And the books on the Aura HD were categorized as "Collections" accordingly.
As the PB740 is recognized within Calibre, has a "driver" and supports "Collections" (on the device) I thought that the same functionality as with the Aura HD would be present on the Pocketbook.
Alas, it isn't.
The PB740 Calibre "driver" doesn't offer an option to crossreference a user defined column with the "collection" field on the device.
My hope is that the Calibre driver for PB740 could be adjusted on this matter.
Thanks for the great support to all Calibre developers.
