The proxy settings show up fine --- same as what I have specified inside IE. Also, when I navigate to http://www.amazon.com/s/?sort=releva...8&unfiltered=1 from IE, it works. Somehow, it doesn't seem to work from within calibre, and python's error message doesn't seem complete --- the URLError is followed by nothing...
Could there be a problem with the proxy blocking calibre or some such thing? In any case, shouldn't python give a more informative error? Thanks! |

I have no idea, I've never actually used a proxy myself, so you're on your own.

@JoyfulT
I suspect your firewall is blocking Calibre.exe or Calibre-parallel.exe Add these to the exclusions (Allow) |

Incorrect title of book ===>> failed download
My comment was that the OP's filename contained incorrect search terms. The title of the book is Dark Lover, but the file name contained the series name and series order. I would clean up my title/author metadata before I try to download metadata.
