OK open a ticket and I'll look at it.

New Browse by TAG, Author, etc. looks slick. Just had a little problem. Added a couple of new tags and some new books and they didn't seem to pick up the additions in browse by tag or author until I closed calibre and restarted it.

Also a small request. Is it possible to capitalise in the tags? It seems to convert everything to lower case.

Otherwise looking good, great job and thanks.

I have one problem. I had my library on external disk. Since I don't have the disk any more, I can't start calibre, I get the following error.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1378, in <module>
File "<string>", line 1368, in main
File "<string>", line 219, in __init__
File "library.pyz/calibre.library.database2", line 358, in __init__

File "/usr/lib/python2.5/os.py", line 171, in makedirs
mkdir(name, mode)
OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/media/disk-1'

It's a minor error that was easily solved by creating a link and then entering the new location of the database but it would be nice if Calibre just asked again where the new location is.

kovidgoyal · 09-17-2008, 01:32 PM

@bluesnews
That RTF uses a feature that calibre's conversion engine (rtd2xml) doesn't support. I suggest saving it as HTML and then trying to convert it.

For historical reasons, tags are forced to lowercase. Changing it would be a lot of work, so it's not something high on my priority list.

The update bug will be fixed in the next release.

I tried to set the conversion defaults for comics. Got this error:

hi,

I've just got my PRS-505 and have loaded all my ebooks in Calibre. I thought I'd try the beta version, so backed up the library and loaded it up. It immediately kicked in to converting the library and everything seemed to be working fine. I then then looked in the User directory (on a Vista pc) and found all the files had been unpacked there. I realised I should have put everything in it's own directory. So I deleted all the files, and moved the library db.

My problem is I can't get it to carry out the conversion again. I tried relinstalling 4.83 and that seemed to working fine. I tried reinstalling 4.84 but it still didn't start the conversion process again. What do I do?

kovidgoyal · 09-18-2008, 04:32 PM

Delete the directory calibre that contains the config files (a bunch of .py files). Also delete metadata.db

And note that you can move the location of the library using the config dialog.

mdavidson · 09-18-2008, 06:10 PM

Hi,

Just tried converting some cbr/cbz files to lrf (both with the gui and command line using default settings). All pages are squashed into the left hand half of a page, with the right hand being mostly black (with some vertical white lines).

calibre 0.4.84b17
Mac OSX 10.5.4

kovidgoyal · 09-18-2008, 06:30 PM

That's to preserve aspect ratio.

faxson · 09-18-2008, 10:06 PM

I'm running OSX Leopard on an intel macbook.

I have a PRS-500, Calibre recognizes the reader, and it appears I can move stuff to it, but I get this when it tries to get the list of books on the reader..

Job: Get list of books on device
PacketError: 'calibre.devices.prs500.prstypes.Answer packets must have a length of atleast 16 bytes. Got initializer of 5 bytes.
Traceback:

I have tried both 0.4.83 and 0.4.84b17 and this happens with both of them, also I have tried reseting both my computer and the reader multiple times with no success.

Any Ideas?
