Not quite sure what you are trying to sasy? Calibredb is a program that can be called from the command line to manipulate the calibre database.

You most open a Command Prompt (Also called DOS Prompt in Windows). You get a Black window. C:\Documents and Settings\[your user name here]> Type Code:
calibredb /? Linux calls the window a "Terminal" Works basically the the same way. File name slashes go the other way "/" |

Calibre 0.6.42
I did my best to check the entire thread before posting, but I'm having an issue with the Create Catalog function. It has to do with the "format" field (with any type of output). Sometimes it just puts "lit,mobi,epub..etc" and sometimes it puts the entire file path. This example is the CSV export: Code:
authors,formats,id,series,series_index,title "Joe Haldeman","lit, mobi","2","","1.0","The Accidental Time Machine" "Robert B. Parker"," Parker/Appaloosa (3)/Appaloosa - Robert B. Parker.lit, Parker/Appaloosa (3)/Appaloosa - Robert B. Parker.mobi","3","","1.0","Appaloosa" "Gregory Benford","lit, mobi","4","","1.0","Beyond infinity" "Greg Keyes","lit, mobi","5","Kingdoms of Thorn and Bone","3.0","The Blood Knight" "Greg Keyes","lit, mobi","6","Kingdoms of Thorn and Bone","4.0","The Born Queen" "Greg Keyes","lit, mobi","7","Kingdoms of Thorn and Bone","1.0","The Briar King" "Greg Keyes","lit, mobi","8","Kingdoms of Thorn and Bone","2.0","The Charnel Prince" "Greg Bear","lit, mobi","9","","1.0","City at the End of Time" "George R. R. Martin"," R. Martin/A Clash of Kings (10)/A Clash of Kings - George R. R. Martin.lit, R. Martin/A Clash of Kings (10)/A Clash of Kings - George R. R. Martin.mobi","10","A Song of Ice and Fire","2.0","A Clash of Kings" "Greg Bear","lit, mobi","11","","1.0","Darwin's Children" "Greg Bear","lit, mobi","12","","1.0","Darwin's Radio" "David Gunn","lit, mobi","13","Death's Head","1.0","Death's Head" "David Gunn","lit, mobi","14","Death's Head","2.0","Death's Head Maximum Offense" "Peter F. Hamilton"," Hamilton/The Dreaming Void (15)/The Dreaming Void - Peter F. Hamilton.lit, Hamilton/The Dreaming Void (15)/The Dreaming Void - Peter F. Hamilton.mobi","15","The Void Trilogy","1.0","The Dreaming Void" "Lee Child","lit, mobi","16","Jack Reacher","1.0","Echo Burning" "Adam-Troy Castro","lit, mobi","17","Andrea Cort Novels","1.0","Emissaries From the Dead" "George R. R. Martin"," R. Martin/A Feast for Crows (18)/A Feast for Crows - George R. R. Martin.lit, R. Martin/A Feast for Crows (18)/A Feast for Crows - George R. R. Martin.mobi","18","A Song of Ice and Fire","4.0","A Feast for Crows" Has this been addressed in a newer release? If this is the wrong place, kindly point me to where this type of bug is being tracked. Thanks, |

@DiapDealer, try updating to a more recent version, I believe this bug was fixed some time ago.

You're right GRiker. Somewhere along the road from 0.6.42 to 0.6.55 the issue did indeed get resolved.
Thanks, |

Hi,
I can't seem to get books to show up as read in my catalog. I've included the details from my generate jobs. I have this issue whether I do it for the whole library (543 books) or 3 (the sample below). One book has no tags, one has the tag "amzn", and one has the tag "+" (without quote marks). Didn't see anything in the thread regarding this. The genres section only contains the "amzn" one. Spoiler:

@moonka:
When you say that you can't see the books shown as read in your catalog, what are you looking for? You should see a check mark in front of the book title in the 'Titles' section, and in the Descriptions Section (the page with the thumbnail of the cover), just before the author's name. G |

What version of the kindle firmware do have installed? Do you have an alternate font installed, or is your kindle firmware modified in any way? For example, screensaver hack, etc? G |

I've been looking at it using the Kindle for PC app. I have a kindle 1 and the firmware is 1.3 but I haven't put the catalog on there yet. I do have some custom screen savers on there but I don't have any other hack installed.

@moonka:
that would explain the empty box, the catalog is optimized for the font built into the kindle, and apparently amazon doesn't use the same font in the PC app. I'll add something to the catalog overview to explain that the PC app doesn't show the read symbol correctly. Thanks for bringing this up. G |
