Cybook support in calibre

[plazec]

I have tryied but getting this error

D:\windows_get_devices2>windows_get_devices.exe
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "windows_get_devices.py", line 77, in <module>
  File "windows_get_devices.py", line 67, in main
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe1' in position 330: ordinal not in range(128)

looks like it can't handle properly czech version of windows or simply unicode

I have a Cybook Gen3 512MB version loaded with firmware 1.2 (Build 796). I tried the last version of calibre (0.4.129) and it did not recognise my device. The output from the windows_get_devices concerning the cybook is as follows (2 deviced as windows recognizes it, one for the internal memory, one for the SD card):

instance of Win32_DiskDrive
{
	BytesPerSector = 512;
	Capabilities = {3, 4, 7};
	CapabilityDescriptions = {"Random Access", "Supports Writing", "Supports Removable Media"};
	Caption = "Bookeen Cybook Gen3  -FD USB Device";
	ConfigManagerErrorCode = 0;
	ConfigManagerUserConfig = FALSE;
	CreationClassName = "Win32_DiskDrive";

	DeviceID = "\\\\.\\PHYSICALDRIVE3";

	SectorsPerTrack = 63;
	SerialNumber = "";

	SystemName = "CRASS-PC";
	TotalCylinders = "63";
	TotalHeads = 255;
	TotalSectors = "1012095";
	TotalTracks = "16065";
	TracksPerCylinder = 255;
};

instance of Win32_DiskDrive
{
	BytesPerSector = 512;
	Capabilities = {3, 4, 7};
	CapabilityDescriptions = {"Random Access", "Supports Writing", "Supports Removable Media"};
	Caption = "Bookeen Cybook Gen3  -SD USB Device";
	ConfigManagerErrorCode = 0;
	ConfigManagerUserConfig = FALSE;

	SystemCreationClassName = "Win32_ComputerSystem";
	SystemName = "CRASS-PC";

	TotalHeads = 255;
	TotalSectors = "1975995";
	TotalTracks = "31365";
	TracksPerCylinder = 255;

Hope this helps in better recognition of the device in the next revisions of the software. Keep up the good work!

Can the people whose Cybooks are not being recognized please post the output of the following two commands:

prs500 info
prs500 df

This is what I get with both commands:

Will be fixed in next release.

I'm getting same error as Gibbo

[crAss]

I get exactly the same thing also.

[kovidgoyal]

Try this build of calibre

http://calibre.kovidgoyal.net/downlo...re-0.4.129.exe

Allas, that isn't an improvement. With 0.4.127 my cybook was detected without problems. Not anymore now, no recognition what so ever


Oh, and I get exactly the same response as Gibbo after "prs500 info".

[Gibbo]

Yep, same as bwaldron

[plazec]

same error here

[kovidgoyal]

Sigh, another typo. Wish I had a cybook. In any case here's a fixed fixed build

Thanks so much, Kovid.
