Different file types to different folders on device

DoubleDroz · 04-07-2012, 12:24 AM

Hi,

I was wondering if there was a way to send the different file types I have such as .mobi and .epub to different folders on my android device.

I know I can do this manually with the "Connect to folder" option, but I was wondering if I could just select a file, click "send to device" and not have to worry about if I'm sending epubs to the kindle app.

I've got different apps for different file types - pdfs, epubs and mobi - and that is why i'd like to send them - uncoverted - to the correct folders.

Cheers,
Droz

This is not a capability supported by Calibre.

Actually you can probably make it happen by defining a custom column that shows the books formats and then using the value of that column in the send to device template.

I'll give it a shot a little later when I have time to tinker...
