Many pages have changed their API endpoint since the last UMR release so that's why you get all those timeouts. Unfortunately, until an update is released, you'll have to resort to the old school downloaders and manually transfer the cbz files to your kobo.

Hey everyone,

New eReader here. Just picked up a Kobo Libra 2.

Has anyone installed UMR on a Libra 2? I followed the instructions on first page. Installed NickelMenu successfully and installed UMR. When I start UMR, the screen becomes darker, the screen is inverted, and no touch is registered.

UMR doesn't work on the new Kobo devices. Also, half of the manga sites don't work anymore since they either changed their API or went disfunct in the meantime.

Hi NiLuJe!

I'm interested in updating this app to support my eReader (libra 2)

Sadly, I have no prior experience with developing for an eReader and was wondering if you could give me some pointers.

Thank you

Easter release!

Hey guys a new release is out fixing the outstanding issues with the broken manga sources!

FBInk is now used as the management backend for the screen orientation and should work automatically without any parameter tweeking.
Unfortunatley however, thouch inputs remain broken on the newer devices, that is something I can not figure out without having an actual device for testing and debugging. Maybe someone else can find a way tho

Happy easter everyone

Well not quite but I don't have as much time as I used to have and I couldn't figure out the "interesting" quirks for touch inputs on the newer devices since I don't have any of them.

Is there a way to make it work directly from Sergey's launcher (cool reader)?

Hi OfficerAction,

I wasn't using the app since a while and luckily you posted a new version.

However, it seems that there has been some modifications to the touch. And with this new version touch is not working with Libra H20 (1st gen)

I activate the log (see below), the touch is correctly catched but the touchpoint is not generated due to clause to "Avoid reporting a contact in released state more than once" that is valid even for the first contact.

Any idea ?

Maybe the clause

if (!m_typeB && contact.state == Qt::TouchPointReleased && !m_lastContacts.contains(key))

sould be

if (!m_typeB && contact.state == Qt::TouchPointReleased && m_lastContacts.contains(key))

Just a guess.

Thanks

UMR uses Qt5 so it's not compatible with Sergey's launcher which is based on Qt4.

Any word on if the touch point stuff got it working on new devices? I'd be willing to be test candidate to help out if needed. I'm also tempted to pull the project and try fiddling with, but I don't know where to really begin since I haven't done any dev like this before. But I can struggle and beat my head against the wall with the best of them!

Looking through a bunch of the Github stuff looks like this would need a linux setup to do a majority of the compiling yeah? Haven't had to set one of those up for personal use in a while....
