Awesome update - I love the new cover browser! Thanks for 0.8 and for all the frequent updates that preceded it.

Not only is Calibre an indispensable tool, but the few times I've reported (minor) issues, Kovid and the forum mods have been exceptionally responsive. Calibre has been a pleasure to use and be involved with in every way.

I would like to see http://www.beam-ebooks.de/, the german "non-DRM-store", in the list of the stores.

Kovid,

When I try to watch the video to see the new features, it comes up with vertical lines. Any idea what's wrong?

The video file uses the max compression profile for h264 encoding (so as to make it as small as possible). It's likely that the video codecs on your computer need to be updated to see it. WHat OS are you on?

I too, want to thank you and all who work on Calibre. Fantastic job. I think the most impressive thing is how you and all involved are so active on this forum, taking heat, suffering through "This don't work" type posts, "How do I", etc.

Not only is Calibre one of my most favorite apps, you, and all involved with this project are my favorite developers!

Thank You

I only have a win7 32 bit system and it works on it. Can someone with win7 64 comment if it works for them?

It works fine for me (win7 64-bit). I probably have third party x264 decoders though.

There's a thread here seeking suggestions, you might want to post it there.

I have win7 64 and also have lines through the video. Every 8-10 seconds I will see a flash of the video content, but it only stays on for a second and then back to vertical lines.

It is the same using goggle chrome or internet explorer.

I have been using calibre for a while now and I want to thank you for such a great program!

Wow, really good stuff. I like the All in 1 tab for metadata too. The constant flow of improvements is very welcome.

Calibre is now so feature rich I can see a 'Calibre Lite' switch will soon be needed for novices and newbies alike in case they get overly bamboozeled. LOL!!! ;-)
