KOReader Dictionary Not Working On Kobo Aura One

nasser · 01-03-2018, 11:05 AM

Hello!

I'm not able to make the dictionary work on KOReader under Kobo Aura One.

Details:

Device: Kobo Aura One 8GB version
KOReader version: v2015.11-1402-g8ef783f
Kobo Start Menu version: 08(2015.10.27)
Kobo Firmware version: 4.6.9995 (10/11/17)
Dictonary: Webster's 1913 dictionary
Dictionary files:
dictd_www.dict.org_web1913.dict.dz
dictd_www.dict.org_web1913.ifo
dictd_www.dict.org_web1913.dict
Dictionary files location: .adds/koreader/data/dict/
Error message: No definition found

In the KOReader search menu, under "Installed dictionaries", it clearly says "Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary".

Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

This looks a lot like the issue described in koreader's bugtracker. You can find a workaround in this post.

Yes, the easiest way is to use the sdcv file below to replace the one inside koreader folder:

Works, Thanks!

Thanks Akbar, it works awesome.

Nasser have you tried other dictionaries? Until Akbar offered this solution, I was lost and couldn't make any of them work.

You are welcome. I'm glad that someone offered that modified file.

I am also gratefull for the workaround but hoping a finalfix for this will soon be included in the OTA-updates. So it can be used again without replacing the file again every time..

I still can't get any of the dictionaries to work for me, I've put them into seperate folders in the "E:\.adds\koreader\data\dict" folder.

I have a Clara HD I doubt that makes any difference.

I've placed "wikt-en-en-2018-10-07.dict.dz" into a folder called "Wikitionary" that didn't work.

I'm on the newest nightly.

Any help is appreciated.

I tried replacing the SCVD file, and that didn't work either.

A dictionary consists of at least three files: .dict.dz, .idx, and .ifo.
