Hi
![]() I just installed Calibre, and I'd like to use it to download the right metadata and covers for my ebooks. Unfortunately, it seems that all "metadata source" plugins aren't working properly ![]() Here some examples. I have a PDF ebook with: Title: D Artiste Author: Matte Painting Of course the data is wrong. The title should be "Matte Painting", with multiple authors, in the D'artiste series. When I try to download the metadata with various plugins, I have zero results. This is a log extract: Amazon.com Found 0 results Downloading from Amazon.com took 1.11800003052 No matches found with query: u'http://www.amazon.com/s/?sort=relevancerank&field-author=Matte+Painting&field-title=D+Artiste&search-alias=stripbooks&unfiltered=1' Barnes & Noble Found 0 results Downloading from Barnes & Noble took 1.51699995995 Querying: http://www.barnesandnoble.com/s?stor...Matte+Painting No matches found with query: u'http://www.barnesandnoble.com/s?store=book&keyword=D+Artiste+Matte+Painting' In the first case, the plugin send to Amazon this query: field-author=Matte+Painting field-title=D+Artiste No surprise if it can't find anything. The plugin imho should be able to try also with a query like: field-keywords=d+artiste+matte+painting that would return the right result. The second case with Barnes & Noble is weird. The query is right as it should be (try it in your browser): http://www.barnesandnoble.com/s?store=book&keyword=D+Artiste+Matte+Painting In my browser, this query gives the expected results (3 books, one of them is the book I was searching). But surprisingly, the plugin log states "Found 0 results". Someone can explain this behavior? ![]() Thanks |

If you want to discuss the B&N results further you should do it in the [Metadata Source Plugin] Barnes & Noble thread. Last edited by DoctorOhh; 05-03-2013 at 08:26 AM. |
