Nickel Indexing Koreader Images since 4.38.23038 Upgrade

trence · 08-21-2024, 12:23 AM

Hi,

I recently upgraded to 4.38.23038 on my Libra 2, and it seems like something changed in regards to indexing images with this in the Kobo config:

ExcludeSyncFolders=(?!kobo|adobe).*?

Post firmware upgrade, all my books that were loaded via Calibre disappeared. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

If I remove that line from the config, I am able to load books again, but it also brings back all the Koreader images.

Edit: User error, changed the RegEx and it's working now.

For what it may be worth, I use the following ExcludeSyncFolders line:

ExcludeSyncFolders=(\\.(?!kobo|adobe).+|([^.][^/]*/)+\\..+)|(screensaver_old)

The |(screensaver_old) is what I rename the screensaver folder to when I disable the screensaver and that keeps Nickel from indexing the images.
