PBibFix - Fix duplicate authors

Skeeve · 02-01-2021, 02:44 AM

PocketBook is very picky about metadata found in epubs.

Infos about book series can only be found when they are in a specific order.
Author names can only be found if the XML namespace is exactly opf.
(Not sure whether or not this is an issue) Books which were deleted from the device and from the cloud still are present in the database.

Please note: The application will not fix the meta data inside the books. It will only fix the entries in pocketbook's database.

I only have a Touch HD3 with firmware U632.6.1.900 so this is the only Version where I can test. Please feel free to report about other devices or firmware versions where you ran it successfully.
