sending CBR/CBZ to ereader device fails with Nook HD+

khahoon · 06-30-2013, 01:10 AM

Hi

I am trying to send bunch of cbr files to my Nook HD+ that connects wirelessly via Calibre Sync app on Adnroid to Calibre Wireless server. But calibre seems to send them as epub. I enabled customized the device plugins of Nook,Nook color and Android ones to accept cbr. However I suspect that neither of these interfaces are reconized as the right device driver. So I assume it must be some wireless device that I cannot find it here.

any suggestions?

thanks

Right click on the device icon in the calibre toolbar and select configure this device.

In Calibre Companion, try going to Preferences | Book Formats and Folders and ensure that cbr / cbz are enabled.

Never mind!

Thanks, however this is no use to me? It does not seem like there is a way to disable auto cbr conversion in that menu? I just want to sendcbr as a cbr.

thanks

Is cbr ticked as a being a valid option for that device. The fact that you are getting auto-conversion suggests that it is not

Well as I mentioned, I am using it through the wireless connection. I tried to tick all the cbr options under device plugins (Nook, Nook Color, Android etc) but none seemed to do the trick with the device over the wireless server.

In the wireless device config it shows up as HDPlus but there is no HDPlus listed in the device plugins.

thanks

When connecting as a wireless device it is up to the device to tell calibre what formats the device can accept and in what priority. If calibre sync doesn't let you set that up then you must contact its developer to get the option added. Alternatively switch to calibre companion, which already offers this possibility.
