It is confused a bit about the book data, meaning that it does not identify correctly the book name and authors, but I suppose you are working for it, and therefore it will be fixed. Thought it worth mentioning, as I did not see anybody mentioning it before.
Really good work, thanks.

It might be that it uses filenames to guess author and Title from the filenames if meta-information for mobi is not yet supported - you can edit the parameters in the settings to get accurate guesses.

Yes it works!
One step closer to full compatibility. Next step I guess will be to read data from the mobi files and in the end full support to export to mobi!
Thanks again!

I have seen strange behaviour, where sometimes author and book name are reversed, sometime, as you say, the filename is taken and unknown is used as author, sometimes is split between author and filename. This points, as the message before mine says, to an incorrect mobi metadata read.
I suppose the people working on the tool know about this problem; first priority was certainly the synchronisation with the Cybook, the rest can follow. I am happy the way things are going on, I shall gladly wait a little bit more.

This is indeed a known issue. Right now I'm having it only extract the author and title from the filename. The format Calibre writes the files is title_-_author_number.extention. This is what it uses to extract the info. It's on my todo list to have it get the info from the book itself (provided the book supports it). Also, you're absolutely right, the first priority was getting the device to synchronize.

However, 'Send to device' only works for the internal flash. A 'Send to memory card' puts the files in the root directory of the SD card, where the Cybook does not look for them.

I have a problem with 4.130. When I attach the Cybook, Calibre finds the device all right, the icon is shown, but then I get this error message:


Job: **Ottieni la lista dei libri del dispositivo** (in English : Get the device book list)
**TypeError**: 'NoneType' object is not iterable

P.S. In the Book list windows, unfortunately, no book is shown

Samme error for me. However when I ask calibre to send an ebook to the Cybook it does, but it puts it in the root folder.

Sending to the internal flash works fine; it puts the book in the 'eBooks' directory and the Cybook picks it up. Sending to the SD card doesn't, it puts the book in the root diir of the card and the Cybook doesn't see it.

Fix commited, waiting for import to trunk. Should appear in the next release.

I don't have an SD card to test with. Do books on the SD card have to be in a directory called eBooks for it to be seen by the device?

Yes, the SD card must have the same directory structure as the main memory, and you can put books, music, fonts and pictures there.

Just downloaded the latest version of Calibre & it doesn't seem to detect the Cybook properly. Both the Cybook and the SD card show up in the Library area but when you try to get the books it displays the following:

Job: **Get list of books on device**
**TypeError**: 'NoneType' object is not iterable
**Traceback**:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "calibre/gui2/device.pyo", line 20, in run
File "calibre/gui2/device.pyo", line 122, in _books
File "calibre/devices/usbms/driver.pyo", line 64, in books

File "calibre/ebooks/metadata/__init__.pyo", line 24, in authors_to_string
TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable

which was a bit of a blow.

However, You can appear to add the books that are in the cybook or it's SD card to the library.
