At the bottom of the libby page there's a "read with ..." and underlined epub, but clicking on epub just gives me a popup saying download a file that can be read, rather than downloading the file.
I have the feeling I'm missing something.
Plus, if possible, the "monitor folder for new acsm and if so download to calibre" function.
EDIT: The useful links, from which I can download the acsm file, are in the form https://libbyapp.com/shelf/loans/123...012345/fulfill |
I don't think the plugin will ever be able to pinpoint to the exact libby page of the book just like OD does. They're different in that matter. Even in Libby's native search, it will show you the book and the list of libraries having it or not having it, it never shows you the book page directly like OD. So you're asking too much here and not something possible. The plugin was mainly created to make it easier to manage books across different libraries and I think it has done so good so far. Though I'll always mourn the loss of the download feature.
If you'd like to go to a certain libby page, use Library Extension or better, libbysearch.com. But those 2 are search website/add-on, not to manage your Libby holds & loans.
Downloading ACSM always takes several steps even when it was still in OD. First you borrow, second you click Download EPUB, third you accept that it can only be opened in ADE, only after that a save dialogue appears. Libby also the same, you click
Borrow, you click
Manage Loan, click
Read With, click EPUB. Even when the plugin was working, it can't condense the steps into one.
