Preferences -> Output Options results in freeze

N8ThaGr8 · 01-06-2023, 11:35 AM

Whenever I try to access "Output Options" in the preferences menu, calibre goes into a freeze and crashes. I found a couple old threads on here that say to either switch the interface font or the system style in the Look and Feel menu, but neither of those worked for me. Any ideas?

DO you have a third party plugin installed?

N8ThaGr8 · 01-06-2023, 11:45 AM

I do, the epubmerge plugin

Also the "DeDRM" plugin

kovidgoyal · 01-06-2023, 12:02 PM

calibre --ignore-plugins

N8ThaGr8 · 01-06-2023, 12:05 PM

Thanks. i tried opening command prompt and running calibre --ignore-plugins, but it still freezes at the output options menu

I'm thinking one of the PI corrupted an entry somewhere. (I have no clue where

)
I downgraded to 6.10 and it (the fail) is still there

Try uninstalling and reinstalling the kepub output plugin. That is where the exception is happening.

While you are at it, before reinstalling the plugin try to see if it fails with the plugin uninstalled.

Ah. The kepub output PI was no longer installed. I installed it and things are golden

N8ThaGr8 · 01-06-2023, 02:43 PM

Tried adding that kepub plugin as well, but still freezing on the output options menu

N8ThaGr8 · 01-06-2023, 02:51 PM

So I think I've narrowed it down to PDFs being the problem child. Since it's just the menu option that's been freezing for me I've still been able to convert books. So I went through the output options one by one. When I click convert books and select PDF as the output format on the popup window, the program crashes here as well.

N8ThaGr8 · 01-06-2023, 02:54 PM

Also, double checked and I do have both the PDF input and PDF output plugins installed and enabled.

N8ThaGr8 · 01-06-2023, 02:56 PM

Lastly, I'm able to convert from PDF, so I would think it's specifically PDF output that is the issue.

(I have no clue where ) I downgraded to 6.10 and it (the fail) is still there

Since it's just the menu option that's been freezing for me I've still been able to convert books. So I went through the output options one by one. When I click convert books and select PDF as the output format on the popup window, the program crashes here as well.
