Yep. Took care of the issue I was having.

Hi Everyone!

I'm Michael, one of the developers at MultiPie working on CC iOS. Thanks for all your help so far with testing the app. Feel free to report anything you believe is broken. The only issue we're aware of at the moment is the changing icon sizes at the top (and features that don't exist yet of course!).

If you encounter any more issues, it would be useful if you could send a log from inside Calibre Companion. I've attached a screenshot showing where you can find the buttons. The most recent log is for the current session, so if you just encountered a crash you'll probably want to send the 2nd item in the list.

Hi,

I've got some problems with grouping, mainly with series, but in a general way. Should I send you a report inside the app, a mail, or how can I explain them? Because it doesn't crash the app (I can see) but it doesn't work.

Hi,

Mailing me at michael@multipie.co.uk would be easiest. The best way of explaining it is probably to give a specific example of where the grouping goes wrong, with a summary of what books get shown, and what books you would expect to see.

Terisa de morgan · 07-19-2016, 06:53 AM

OK, thank you very much. I'll try it again and I'll make a detailed report.

You got series meta data to download?

pwalker8 · 07-19-2016, 09:18 AM

Odd, CC is now crashing when I connect. It connects, it goes through the initial sync, then it crashes. That wasn't happening yesterday. The only difference that I can think of it that now I have the books that I wasn't able to download before.

I didn't add more than a few books untill today, so hadn't notice before that there is no series metadata in cc. The series metadata is there when opening the files in reading apps, but cc is not downloading it.

Terisa de morgan · 07-19-2016, 12:49 PM

There is no info about series, but entry for grouping y series, and it looks like it does something, as sthe same as sorting.

tilia · 07-19-2016, 01:07 PM

For me Grouping, under series just indicate that no books have series. The app does this by showing [99 Books] when series is clicked on in the drawer (there's 99 books in CC, over half have series set in calibre).

Terisa de morgan · 07-19-2016, 02:12 PM

Same here, yes, that was what I was seeing.

pwalker8 · 07-21-2016, 07:55 AM

This morning's drop added support for series. It's pretty nice too, I simply selected the books that have series info and sent it to my iPad and the existing entries were replace with the new entries including serial info.

Terisa de morgan · 07-23-2016, 05:21 AM

For me, the last release has improved a lot the metadata download, it has reduced the time to 20% of the previous one and more reliable.

Hi everyone, thanks for your reports testing so far. It seems like there were a few issues but Michael has resolved most of it so far. (Sorry for not letting you know I was going away and was handing it over to him to look at.) Once I've fully caught up with where the app is and what needs doing, I'll let you know what the next steps will be.

I am using CC on iOS and I have been able to open some of the books with Marvin. I however have a bunch of Videos and MP3's in Calibre.

How can I open them on iOS?
