TXT file should be in UTF8, then it will work no matter what.

"Resizing" affects LRF only and only after restart. And it would work as expected only with books which haven't been opened as quisvir pointed out.


Thanks for comprehensive report.
Which version of Windows are you using?
Could you try running checkdisk or even formatting internal memory please.

PS


There is no such things as Cyrillic in ANSI, it was always 1251.
Your father's PC is probably Russian version and is using Russian as default locale, unlike yours.
This is VERY much appreciated. Seriously, thanks so much!
And no, his locale and everything is US, and strangely the .txt in ANSI were readable o.o fluke I guess.

Also the PRS+ setting for text resizing doesn't work, I have S set to 120 and M to 130 and they are still at stock settings with a huge difference between them.

EDIT: I tried UTF-8 formatting in the FB2 converter and it seems to work on my computer now. I hope someone can provide an explanation to why my Win7 computer couldn't read the files converted from FB2 to both ANSI and 1251 yet my fathers Win7 computer could.
Try Calibre to convert FB2.

I've personally used it, but he likes his FB2Batch (I think that's what it's called). It's actually quite nice and I set it to work perfectly. But thanks for the suggestion, that's my choice.

Well, since this issue can be sorted by not using porkupan's/amutin's firmware or installing the Sony firmware, can we get the sub-collections before this is fixed since this could be a major time taker to get fixed?

Has the standby value for the 650 been sorted so I can set it to say 30 minutes instead of the default 10 minutes?

I am looking at the last wiki update and I am seeing something I found already weird.
Why do not invert the order of 3 & 4 in menu customizer for the 600? It would be way more logical.

Otherwise, is it possible to build 2 customs firmwares simultaneously as I am now the owner of a 650.

It would make code have to check model number yet another time.

Yep. In build props use comma separated model names without spaces.

Sorry for the really basic question, but I can't seem to find how to install this on a PRS-350. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks!

Feedback to Ben

Hi Ben, I am back 'to business' and tested your newly implemented option for changing on a sd card a text before written on the reader. Now putting back the sd card to the reader I can see the changes made on the laptop.
Again thanks for this feature!!!

Thanks -- I actually saw that, but I don't know what to do with the file after download. Are there instructions in the zip file? Thanks!

There is a readme file inside.
And a setup.exe. Just run it.
