[Tolino] Import reading status from reader to calibre

HibDelyatt · 01-12-2022, 08:54 AM

Hello out there,

In tolino readers, books can be marked as "Read". When you do this, a small tick is shown on the right behind the reading progress in the tolino's book collection.
The "reading progress" is shown in the tolino as a growing bar under the book cover.

I suspect that this information is stored in the tolino in a boolean variable as "true" or "false".

In calibre I have created a column "Read" in which the values "Yes/No/Undefined" are written. Read books get a "Yes" and are then marked with a green tick in the "Read" column.
So far so good.

Now my question:
Is it possible to read the reading status of a book from tolino and write it directly in the corresponding field of the "Read" column in calibre?

Thank you for your time and your thoughts.

Many greetings,
Hib

Sorry, unless something has changed in the last firmware version, there is nothing you can do. The reading status for the books is not stored anywhere that is accessible when the device is connected to the PC. Or if it is, I haven't been able to find it.

Oh - that's a great pity.
So I'll have to keep entering the reading status in calibre by hand then.

Thanks for checking that out.

Have a good time and stay healthy,
Hib
