omk3 · 03-09-2010, 04:51 PM

It's happened before, but I didn't pay too much attention. Now lately, it happened again with two different books: Towards the middle of the book, every time I push the next page button, the next page loads twice. I mean it loads once, as expected, I have time to read the first word or two, and then it flashes again and reloads.

Now, I have learned a few things about the structure of epubs lately, so I checked these two books where this happened. Both had fairly large html files in them, more than 200kb each, and the double loading happened towards the end of each file. I'm not sure if it is really relevant, to be honest. Has anyone else noticed anything like this?

What is even more weird is that when I go to the next page by swiping with my finger, the annoying double-flashing doesn't happen. It only happens when I use the buttons. No idea how to explain this either.

Oh, and when I go to a previous page, and then to the next again, in other words when I go to a page previously loaded, it only loads once, normally.

Does anyone know anything about this?
