You did not listen to the correct advice I gave you. Go to the calibre website and get the latest version from there. The version you have is garbage because it;s not built correctly. Plus it's not the current version.

The ZIP file in the link is not the plugin itself. You need to unzip it first. It looks like there is two plugin versions inside the ZIP file linked.

But before the OP installs the plugin, he needs to get a working version of calibre from the official website. Then he can install the plug and get it working from there.

I only replied about the error I quoted. This is a known error. It means the ZIP file is not a plugin. The plugin is inside the ZIP file.

The (1) was not what I found odd. It was a generic: Calibre_Plugins
