cover of the book read with Koreader on Pocketbook

I just bought a Pocketbook Inkpad X.
I installed Koreader. After reading a book with Koreader and putting the e-reader to sleep, it's the cover of the last book read with PB Reader (default pocketbook reader) instead of the cover of the book read with Koreader. where is the error?

Nowhere. Pocketbooks don't support the full standby behaviour available on other platforms, like Kobo.

You can still workaround it using the plugin "coverimage". It is known to work on PBs: https://github.com/koreader/koreader/issues/8046

It isn't fully automated. It is expected that you setup the plugin first to save the cover of current book in a place you know and then tell your PB system to use that image path on suspension.

The issue linked contains the settings you need to tweak on the plugin (ie: Grayscale BMP)

Hello I have questions. Does this mean that I need to manually follow the instruction of saving cover image whenever I read a new book? Also does this mean that I need to delete the other cover images whenever switching to another book?

You should be able to set up a book cover as standby image via Koreader on a PocketBook using the instructions HERE
