Kobo H20 WIFI download from Calibre library
Hello guys
I have connected my H20 to my PC by WIFI.
I started Calibre server option and I can see all eBooks from my Calibre library with corresponding format button (Epub or Kepub) to download them.
When I press one of this button on the H20, nothing happens except the screen of the H20 is flashing. So I can't download any eBooks. Any ideas?

It works on my Glo with firmware 3.8.0 and Calibre 2.6. I notice that the screen flashes and no download happens if I tap somewhere other than on the epub button, but if I tap on the button everything works okay. (I have only tried epub format).

The description makes me think you are trying to download the kepub version. That doesn't work. The epub works here whenever I try it. If it isn't, check the server logs in calibre.

In fact the epub download is working only if I use the non-mobile version of the Library.
Either Epub and Kepub buttons of the Mobile version are not working.

Thank you for your answer.
It's working now with firmware 3.11 but only for Epub not for Kepub as you said...
Do you known if this problem will be fixed someday? Is it a Calibre version bug or a Kobo firmware bug ?
I really need to be able to download Kepub from Calibre library by WIFI....

It's a little bit of both. For kepubs, the calibre server is serving files with ".kepub" as the extension. But, the Kobo browser isn't expecting that as an extension. If the was sending it with ".kepub.epub", it would work.

I hacked the code a while ago to prove this. I'll try and have a look to do it properly.
