Adding a single FOLDER to calibre 2.24

Danesh · 04-10-2015, 09:55 AM

Hi every one,
On a Windows 7 x64 machine, I have a folder by the name of say X which contains two subfoldrs by the names of say X1 and X2 as well as three .pdf files by the names of say B1, B2, and B3.
X1 and X2 subfolders each contain a number of .mp3 files, which are audio files related to the .pdf files.
B1 .pdf file is the main book. B2 and B3 .pdf files are the supplementary to B1.
What's the best scheme for adding the main folder (X) with all its contents to calibre 2.24 in one place (in a single FOLDER) so that while reading the main book (B1 .pdf file) I have immediate access to other .pdf files (B2 and B3) and .mp3files associated with it?

Thanks in advance for your help

calibre can only associate a book record with one of each filetype.

@BetterRed has had luck with, at various times, using comments links to special folders which contain extra files, and rigged evernote links -- he should have more details on what that might entail.

That will require a certain amount of extra work, though.
