Plugboards
Has anyone gotten their plugboard to send to their 2024 Kindles? Really I’m only asking about the Colorsoft. The two books I’ve sent don’t have the series and series number in the title.

I’m stupid. I totally missed it in the configure device section.

Well I know where it’s located but I can’t figure out how to make it work. The filename is correct when I view it in OpenMTP. But it’s not showing on the actual Kindle. No series name or series number.

The library view in a kindle will show the title and author contained in the internal metadata of the book. The file name is irrelevant.

Yes, and plugboards change that internal metadata. Or at least they used to.

They do if they are configured that way.

Do you mean that current Kindles need a different configuration than the previous generations did?

No. I mean that the plugboard needs to be set to change the title of the book as desired. If a save template is used to only change the file name on disk that will have no effect on how the book appears in the kindle library.

It would be good to see the configuration being used in this case.

Here you go. I’d appreciate any help. This is the same configuration I used with my previous Kindles. I missed this on the second screen but this set to the Title in the Template Editor.

That's the device configuration. Can you post a photo of your plugboard configuration?

What happens if you select Any device instead of Kindle 2? Does the plugboard work then?

The correct device in plugboards for the new MTP Kindles is MTP_DEVICE.
