Conversion problems

iomari · 09-13-2011, 04:53 AM

Once again I must say that this software is marvelous.

My problem is that whenever I convert a bunch of epub to txt, the last file always stays on 100% and says "working" forever. My work around is to redo that file with another already converted file. Then it will complete the previous file that hung and will then hang on the file that was already converted.When it hangs on the last already converted file I can now interrupt the process and all is well. Is this a known bug ?

Hope I explained myself.

What OS are you using?
What version of calibre are you using?

This is not a known bug. I have seen folks running Linux on occasion report this experience. They reported that exiting calibre (not closing it to the tray) and reopening calibre would eliminate the problem for a while, so you might want to give that a go along with a complete system reboot for good measure and see if it helps.
