Converting to EPUB for Cybook Gen3 with new firmware
Hi!

How may I convert documents to the EPUB format and upload them via Calibre on my Cybook Gen3? As I can see at the Configuration page of Calibre the Cybook Gen3 device interface does not support the epub format.
The reader I own (with the newest firmware) does support epub.

Any help is very appreciated,
DSP

Go to Preferences->Plugins->Device Interface and customize the cybook g3 driver. You can add epub to the loist of formats

I do not really know how to customize the cybook g3 driver - there is no option to add a format to the list. I can only see prc, html, dpf, rtf, txt and mobi.
I can uncheck the mobi format because the new firmware does not support it, but cannot add "epub" to the list. Any ideas?

Why not just copy the ePub files to the Gen3 manually?

Well, I done that already, however it is not very convenient

Besides, version 0.6.6 supports epub output for the Cybook G3, thanks to user_none!
