Aura ONE Statistics for non-kepub?

Soong · 01-29-2019, 08:43 AM

Does the Aura One offer any kind of basic statistics for (sideloaded) books that are not kepubs? I know some of the extended statistics are only available for that format, but I was wondering what kind of information the Aura One offered for any other format.

The statistics offered for epub, with a little trick, are: reading percentage, Hours of reading, current chapter % (may be not really working for epub, always zero for me) media Minuit for reading session, media page for Minuit. And for all books: % of finshed books and number of read books. Nothing for pdf.

You can add a line in a file to have statistics for epub (not when reading but pressing for a while on My books) The file is: Kobo eReader.conf in the hidden directory .kobo/Kobo/ of Your Kobo device.

In the following section (if there isn't create it) add a line:

[FeatureSettings]
BookSpecificStats=true

I use Linux so I haven't got the problem but if You use Windows may be better not to use Notepad or Wordpad, but something more similar in end of line to Unix, like Notepad++.

for more information see, for example, that thread where I apprehended this little trick:

Thank you so much! That is exactly the information I needed. I would be able to edit the file without problems, but I don't have an Aura One (yet). I got a Tolino Epos instead because the Aura One is not available here in Germany, but I am thinking about importing one the next chance I get.

What about the other supported formats like mobi and the comic book ones? Does the same trick work here?

For moby there are the same statistics than epub. But moby has very bad rendering with Kobo default engine: You will always have a blank line between paragraphs and no indentation. And no index. It is better to convert moby files into epub.

I have no comic books, sorry (the only one I have is in kepub).
