See attachment for the relevant CP configuration

If I have a comic-book with just a CBZ file, the CP PI will count the images and update my #images column. Perfect.

However if I also have a RAR containing several video clips for the book, the CP plugin does something but it doesn't update my #images column with the number of images in the CBZ. Bummer.

If I rename the .RAR in the book folder to a .BAR the CP plugin counts the images in the CBZ and updates my #images column. I can live with that, but others mayn't want to.

For textual books: if the preferred format is present the PI uses it to count/calc stats. Maybe there should be a Preferred format for Text books, and another one for Graphical books.
