OK, so I am making some progress here (still working on the Likebook for the moment). I now rearranged the library on the device in the way suggested here and I now see the file manager screen coming up almost immediately, which is great!
Now I am experimenting with the calibre search, which I previously could not use, since it is only available on the file manager search menu, which took more than 10 minutes to appear.
I did put part of my library on the SD-card, another part in the main memory. When I connect calibre, I can see all of them. On the first connect, it took about an hour to read the device, but now I am down to 2 minutes on every connect, so I am assuming Calibre uses a catalog on the device to speed things up. Calibre recognizes the main memory and the card separately and displays the list of books in there also separately.
From the experiments I made so far is that KOReader's calibre search is using only the catalog on the main device, since I can not find books that are on the SD-card. Is that correct? Is there a way to instruct KOReader to use both catalogs? Or to switch between them? Or do I have to put everything on the main memory in order to be found?
I just want to make sure I understand how things work before committing to one way or another.
Thanks to all the help so far,
Ctop
