What happens when you export book notes from >1 koreader device?

arooni · 02-04-2020, 06:54 PM

I read on my PW4 and my Kindle Fire tablet. Often I read the same book across both devices.

Today I exported all notes from both libraries; I noticed:

1) It doesn't seem to re-export already exported notes (i.e. if I read a book and previously exported the notes they don't seem to arrive).
2) I didn't have a good test of book notes/comments to find out if it *merged* the comments/notes for the two places I was reading the book (i.e. merged the notes from the kindle from those of the android tablet).

anyone know how this is managed? i don't want to overwrite my notes.

i also use syncthing to manage syncing the library across different devices which might complicate/make things easier (probably makes things harder lol)

KoHighlights can merge them, I believe.
