Deleting the file before reopening the book prevents the bad things happening. It works basically the same as for epubs on the SD card

Second idea : when we open an epub, the file is read and all is copied in database... if, just after, we read the informations in database and then rewrite the file, might this be a solution? in this case, we must put a trigger in database if it's ok because the file should be rewrite each time a bookmark is added or deleted in database...
The problem is when the file is read. When the bookmarks are created from it, they don't match the ones created by the user. There is some information that is different. They still point to the same place in the book, but the information that is used to build the list is changed.

Do you know if a solution will be proposed in next FW ?
I am pretty sure it won't be fixed.
