I may have found another bug, I will open a ticket if it is. I tried searching for it but I don't think any one else posted it. I'm still on 6 beta 9.

Basically when I select, lats say 500 books, and click get metadata and covers it only gets it for a about 50% at a time and I have to redo it many times to get it for all books. The strange thing is that from the stats on my key on the idbndb site I can see that every time I do it, calibre downloads the metatdata for all the selected books, but it only "saves" it for about 50% at a time.

A related but not related question is about isbndb. They say that a account has a limit of 500 per day, yet calibre regularly downloads more than that on a day. For example today with all this re downloading my key has used about 2000 lookups.

Thanks,
M.
