Apologies if this is answered elsewhere, but I'm new to the whole system of Calibre/Kobo/ereaders in general, and I'm a bit overwhelmed.
![]() I have a Kobo (Clara 2e) and I'm using it in conjunction with Calibre already--what is the benefit KOreader offers over native functionality exactly? I understand the sort of granular stuff--editing formatting and fonts and etc, but is it just for things that small? I see it has some sort of wireless connection functionality but I can't figure out in what regard, and I know Calibre has the option to email yourself a book, is it like that? |

@psychobillie: It barely has anything to do with calibre?
It's a completely separate reader application; it just also happens to have a plugin that serves as a calibre wireless client. I don't quite think of anything to say besides check the manual? |

Hey guys, got a question regarding the importation of ebooks through Calibre.
When importing a lot of books, it takes time and the ebook goes in sleep mode or whatever it is which aborts the importation. Is there any way to prevent this other than making the sleep/lock timeout longer ? Also, when importing books through Calibre, they do not show outside of Koreader in the official Kobo book thing. Is there a way to refresh the library or something so they appear outside of Koreader ? Thanks <3 |

Ich habe mir den KoReader installiert (hat super geklappt ) und nun folgende Fragen:
gestern habe ich mir ein Buch im Kobo Store gekauft, das sehe ich im KoReader allerdings nicht? Wenn ich diesen beende ist es aber auf dem reader vorhanden. Wenn ich mit dem KoReader lese und die Blättertasten verwende: wie kann ich es umstellen auf welcher der beiden er vorwärts blättert? Aktuell ist oben --> zurück und unten -_> vorwärts. Hätte es gerne andersrum und nicht gefunden. LG Sandra |

Correct, KOReader doesn't read DRM-ed books.
I'm not sure otoh about the page turn buttons. |

Why is this thread and the Nickel menu thread not sticky? Is the forum limited to only five sticky posts? (Think I just answered my own question).
But isn't this more likely to be searched for than Metazoa? Whatever that is. |

Yeah, I imagine many more people searching for KOReader and NickelMenu install packages than some of the items in top menu.
Is there anyone 'in charge' of the top menu selection? Or is it like the biblical tablets - set in stone, for ever and ever, amen. ![]() |

If so, I will not bother installing it. Thanks to anyone who knows the answer - sounds like a No anyhow. |

KOReader could add the code to handle DRMmed ePubs but that would be a fairly major task and likely to cause legal and financial complications with having to obtain licensing. |

The Kobo corner unfortunately doesn't have a local moderator, so it's in the hands of global mods, for which it's, understandably, harder to grasp the context for such changes
![]() Usually, a friendly message issued via the "report" button on the thread would do the job, but, in this case, we kinda probably really need local mod(s) ;o). (I mean, I'm a local mod in the Kindle corner, and that sort of house-keeping is 99% of what I use these powers for. And updating thread titles. That normal users can't edit their own thread title is befuddling in general and infuriating when you need it ![]() |
