I may have found another bug, I will open a ticket if it is. I tried searching for it but I don't think any one else posted it. I'm still on 6 beta 9.

Basically when I select, lats say 500 books, and click get metadata and covers it only gets it for a about 50% at a time and I have to redo it many times to get it for all books. The strange thing is that from the stats on my key on the idbndb site I can see that every time I do it, calibre downloads the metatdata for all the selected books, but it only "saves" it for about 50% at a time.

A related but not related question is about isbndb. They say that a account has a limit of 500 per day, yet calibre regularly downloads more than that on a day. For example today with all this re downloading my key has used about 2000 lookups.

Thanks,
M.

A few issues (6.0.10 beta):

1. When converting from htm to mobi, it creates a TOC at the end of the title, even when I disable this feature, because I already have a TOC at the beginning.

2. Moreover, it includes not only the chapters in the TOC it creates at the end, but also all endnotes.

3. During the conversion from htm to mobi, it changes Arabic numerals for endnotes to Roman.

4. During the conversion, it left-justifies text which is centered in the htm (verses.)

I have found another conversion bug. When converting from an MS Reader file, the external ToC is mostly incorrect. I was converting from MS Reader to ePub using beta 10. It did recognize the ToC, but it got it mostly incorrect.

@myle00 Go ahead and open the ticket, I'll look at it when I have time. Certainly for small numbers of books (4-5) I can't reproduce this and I don't have the time to try it for larger numbers

@Sonist; Regarding 4 could you openn a ticket and attach the html

kovidgoyal · 07-03-2009, 03:21 PM

@JSWolf: ticket + file please

I am replying to myself.

calibre-0.6.0b10-i686.tar.bz2 produces the error you can see above.

calibre-0.6.0b9-i686.tar.bz2 works after uncompressing.

Same problem with epub output files.

@kacir: What version of libgcrypt does your system have?

 $ ls /lib/ | grep libgcrypt

Is that what you asked?

In this post over in the Mobipocket Output thread, I asked, regarding calibre 0.6's mobipocket indexing suport:

Quote:

Is this something that will allow ebook-convert's Mobipocket output to create navigation entries? The ones you use by adding <guide> entries in the .opf file? Most of my custom Mobipocket books include things like Table of Contents, Copyright Page, Dedication, Notes, etc. When I create the book with mobigen, these entries show up in the Contents menu (in the desktop Reader app) or in the Navigation menu (in the Windows Mobile app). But when I create them with ebook-convert, which is of course the only way to get larger images to store properly in the books, only the Table of Contents shows up. I've tried searching to see if I'm missing something, but I haven't been able to find out.

I just noticed that, when using ebook-convert to convert an OEB book to Mobipocket, there's a step in the output that says

Indexing navPoints...

Is this related to the navigation links I'm asking about?

kovidgoyal · 07-05-2009, 01:48 AM

@kacir: try upgrading, the latest binary build requires libgcrypt.so.11.5

@chorpler: No those are for joystick based navigation
