Turning off "Analyzing Books on the Device" notifications
I'm not sure when exactly this feature was added (a quick scan of the updates list turned up 'Show a busy cursor while calibre is working on matching books on the device to books in the library, which can take a while if the user has a lot of books on the device.', but I'm not sure that's what did it), but on my flavor of linux I'm getting a series of "Analyzing books on the device: x% finished" notifications that goes up by about ~13% each note. I'm rather certain this wasn't the intended behavior, but on my end this series of notes takes nearly 2 minutes to finish flashing, while the actual process of scanning appears to only be taking about 2 seconds. It wasn't an issue at first, I just ignored it, but it's become one of those things that just bugs me a little more every time until it's reached the point of legitimately threatening my sanity (you know how that goes... or maybe it's just me).
Is there a way I can turn this feature off? I assume the problem here is on my end, that whatever call is being made isn't correctly supported on my system, and like I said, my device scans quickly, so I don't really need it anyway... |

Well, that would work, but I don't really want to kill all the notifications, just these particular ones. I generally appreciate being told when conversion queues and the like are completed. Suppose if it isn't possible I might wind up going this route.

@fridgey I don't like notifications from anything unless I'm expected to take action, so I have it off.
But if other things only notify once when the 'job' is done, then this sounds like an anomaly, you could lodge a Bug report here - https://bugs.launchpad.net/calibre BR |
