Wrong Author Shows In KOReader

DarkRookie2 · 02-24-2022, 01:26 AM

I am not sure if this is a bug or me not understanding, but when I upload some of my books to KOReader, some of them have the wrong Author info.
As what is shown in Calibre is not what is not shown in KOReader.
I tested this on my Kobo Sage and my Android phone. The same book would display the same issue on both devices.

What we show is what's actually baked into the file, which might not match the latest edits in the Calibre DB, depending on how the file was sent to the device.

(If you do a polish book pass before sending, one of the options is doing just that).
