Re-Extracting Covers
I know I have extracted covers before (was testing a glitch for Kris), but I can't remember how I did it. Now I need to do it again (did a total reset/restart with Apple). Anyone know offhand how to do it?

I know I can recover each image from the Edit Metadata slide, but I have over 1k books, and that would take forever.

I also use Calibre, if there is an easy way from there?

Thanks

Go to your device settings app, choose Marvin, "Support and Maintenance" and turn on the setting there.

New (additional) problem, Kris. I used the Support and Maint setting, didn't work.

Now, I was rechecking edits, and found that Marvin is NOT retaining metadata changes using Marvin XD. I went through the Marvin Library using XD, and keep finding yellow lines on books I've just had Calibre export the metadata on.

Anyone else having similar problem?

I'm not sure I'm following. Could you go through the setup again please?

I was checking my Marvin library, trying to update metadata (get the missing covers back). When I looked at the Marvin library, using Marvin XD, I would update the library by exporting the Calibre metadata to Marvin.

Then I would turn off Marvin XD to check that the info correctly transferred to Marvin. On the next run, the same books that I had just gotten to green would once again show as yellow, and the covers would still be missing.
