Classic Not Seeing Cover Art

Kevin In CT · 02-21-2022, 04:15 PM

Hi all, it's been quite awhile since I've been on here. I do have a question. For a reason I can't explain, I no longer see the cover art when I am in my Library. I just see a little stock thumbnail for all the books with part of the title below. I have a Samsung one modelSM-T230NU running Android 4.4.2. I've used Calibre from the get go with this so I am totally at a loss to make sense out of what has happened.

Thanks Guys!

Are there books on the device that previously were on the device and did show covers? Because it sounds like the problem could be the epubs, but the device. It sounds like it is showing the title page of the epub rather than the cover.

Hi Zod, they all used to show, I've tried dropping files into different directories on the file tree but still no dice

Since it's a tablet, did you try installing other reading apps to see if the same problem happens?

Try converting epub to epubs in calibre and select No Default Cover. Then use calibre to side them on your nook. Your Cover art should show (this has always worked for me).

I've tried all the suggestions offered here and none have made a bit of difference, the darn covers are still not showing up...sigh...
