Calibre Companion and fanficdownloader

[clairebarri]

Hello All!

I've been constantly having a problem with fanficdownloader in relation to Caliber Companion ... Using fanficdownloader on my desktop is fine, I have no issues updating any fics from multiple sources, however when it comes time to sync my tablet (which I do once a month) I never get the full updated story. There is always a chapter missing at the end. This means if only one chapter was updated in the month it doesn't 'upload' to the tablet, even when it says its new/updated. I have tried both using the wireless and the CC Content Server.

My FFdownloader has been customized to sync through a reading list of all the updated fic with the "Ass new/updated storied to 'Send to Device' Reading Lists(s)" selected and the reading list provided.

I am not sure what I can do to resolve this problem and it is quite frustrating.

As usual, any advice will be greatly appreciated!

I think it is safe to say Calibre companion has nothing to do with your troubles. But if it is, then you need to be more specific and present the problem as if the person your explaining it to has never used fanficdownloader.

Is the story a single updated epub?
If it is a single epub are you deleting it from Calibre companion before sending the new epub?
Do the epubs have the same name?
Do the updated epubs use the same book entry in Calibre?

Or are the chapters separate epubs?

The fact you have used both the Content Server and direct transfer via wireless would indicate that the issue is most likely in your work flow.

If the book being sent has the same name as the book on the device then make sure to delete the book via Calibre companion on your device before sending the new book. Double check the exact contents of the reading list.

I only have questions and guesses hopefully someone with experience will shed some light on our problem
