1. Drag and drop eBook into Calibre
2. Import book into Libra 2. Plug out device and plug it back in
3. Use "prettify cover" plugin to update the ratio and crop the image
4. Use KoboUtilities and "Upload covers for selected books". I leave all of the boxes unchecked. I just tried checking the option to upload the cover for kepubs but I haven't seen any changes

I just tried to add a new book to my eReader through calibre, and it doesn't display a cover on the sleep screen - there's no thumbnail either. It displays the basic cover generated by kobo with the title and file time in the center of the image and two black borders (who is also low-res when asleep). The images inside the book are fine though.

It seems like this issue is happening on all of my eBooks - sideloaded and purchased.

I have a hunch that it's taking the thumbnail image and scaling it up, but I'm not sure how to fix it
