Hmm, not sure if this has been answered yet since a search did not provide good results. I have noticed that some .lit books seem to take a long time to convert or actually never convert. I am using 0.5.7 on Mac OS X and the .lit files are not DRM'd.

From the console app, it seems that the jobs are actually not even started. For example, I started a conversion and waited over 30 minutes with no change. When I look in the console, it seems that nothing has happened. Then I stop the conversion, and the console shows this:

Yet the book conversion was actually started over 30 min earlier. The lit files are about 700-800 KB in size. Any thoughts? Am I not waiting long enough and should just leave these ones overnight?
