Hi Bob,

I tried several since I also figured it was the quotes and/or ' that were causing issues.

The last one had no quotes and no spaces, no ', just to see if it would work:

mobi2mobi --outfile HarryPotter-Book1-test1.mobi --updatedtitle HarryPotterandtheSorcerersStone --addauthor JKRowling Book1.mobi

This failed.

Other examples tried are:

mobi2mobi --outfile HarryPotter-Book1-test1.mobi --updatedtitle HarryPotterandtheSorcerersStone --addauthor JKRowling Book\ 1\ -\ Harry\ Potter\ and\ the\ Sorcerer\'s\ Stone.mobi

mobi2mobi --outfile HarryPotter-Book1.mobi --updatedtitle "Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone" --addauthor "JK Rowling" Book\ 1\ -\ Harry\ Potter\ and\ the\ Sorcerer\'s\ Stone.mobi

mobi2mobi --outfile HarryPotter-Book1.mobi --title "Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone" --author "JK Rowling" Book\ 1\ -\ Harry\ Potter\ and\ the\ Sorcerer\'s\ Stone.mobi

All failed with the same error.

I also tried without specifying an "outfile" to see if data could just be added:

mobi2mobi --updatedtitle 'Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone' --addauthor 'J.K. Rowling' Book\ 1\ -\ Harry\ Potter\ and\ the\ Sorcerer\'s\ Stone.mobi

This did not cause an error, but also did not appear to work according to mobils.


If I am using it wrong on the command line please let me know.

Thanks

- Steven
