Thanks kartu, it solved my problem.
I couldn´t read "...shown as comment" because the entry was to long...
Thx again!

I have to downgrade the firmware of my prs 350 allowing me to install the prs+ software. Anybody can share a link where i can download a previous version of the firmware. Thanks!

There is no Sony updater that can install previous version. Better wait for beta.

Not need downgrade
Install corresponding firmware localization from boroda or amutim,
after install PRS+ manual (not .exe)

So where is a link to the download image? Normally fora like this (esp with 127 pages!) have the basics like that as a sticky in the first post, but I am not seeing anything looking like that.

TIA,

Hi kartu,

I used PRS+ on my old 505 for a while and it worked great! So before everything else: thanks a lot for the great work to you and all the helpers!

Now I just installed the setup.exe on my German 650 and have discovered some issues/questions I haven't found solutions for. I'm not quite sure if this is the right place here, so if I'm wrong, please just send me over to the right corner... ;o)
Ok, here goes:
- 'Verzeichnisse duchsuchen' ('Browse Folders') on the star-up page overlaps with the text next to it ('Buch-Verlauf'). Maybe just 'Verzeichnisse' ('Folders') would be a better idea?
- There appear to be some translations missing that are still called for example Core.NODE_MORE, Calc.TITLE, StatusBar.TITLE etc. Is that what the patched erman.js on your site is for? If so, what do I do with it exactly?
- When I change the language setting under 'General Settings' to English, the languages mix: everthing that's been changed by PRS+ stays German, the rest mainly turns English, except for the 'Language settings' and 'Keyboard settings'.

Another thing that's not specific to PRS+, because the problem was the same before, but maybe somebody can help me with this: I have a lot of books by the same author and usually sort by author when viewing them all. When I do this, the second criteria for sorting seems to be date, even though it's supposed to be title, thus they are not alphabetical. Is there a way to correct that?

Ok, that's enuff. =) Any comments are greatly appreciated!
Happy reading,
aj

Yes, number of non-english translations are missing.
I don't have any idea regarding sorting problem.

German-Translation-File was reviewed by MiK77 some days ago.
Most if not all of your issues are addressed. (Use of "Ordner" instead of "Verzeichnis" a.s.o)
This new translation will be inclueded with the next PRS+ release.

Meanwhile you can get the file (german.js) from the repository at the google.code project page and build your own custom installer.
See Wiki at the project-page.

No idea about your sorting problem. But pleae note, that meta-tags, taken from the files, and not the filenames are basis for sorting.

Restarting the reader solves that.

This is a known issue with the PRSx50 models. Are you a Calibre user? If so, refer back to post #1790 in this thread for the Calibre workaround.

Hello Mik77.
A question: the new update has fixed the known bugs of previous version?
Thanks.

THANKS!

Now may I suggest that you "toot your horn", and make it a bit more prominent? I had to "search" that posting a bit before I spotted, then understood what "Project site" implied. Make it big/bold, and maybe add "downloads here", or something to that effect.

FWIW
