Just wanted to thank cearp for this excellent extension, Stanner for the KO Reader mod, and Freshmaker for the lovely KUAL thumbnail. Makes things much more aesthetically pleasing.

Very welcome, nice to see a community work together, even if it is such a small thing!

I would also just like to say a quick thank you to everyone who contributed!
I finally got around to applying this today and it's made a huge difference.

As always, look through the shell script files and see what they're actually doing, use at your own risk.

Basically just copies this image (already in the zip) to /mnt/us/system/thumbnails/ and applies that thumbnail path to ALL of the records (you likely just have 1) that have files ending in .kual, in cc.db.

Reboots after the operation, to refresh the library to get the cover to show.
I'm sure there's a better way to do that that rebooting, so if anyone knows - tell me please!

It works flawlessly on my KOA 3

Did anyone try setting a cover thumbnail on a collection?

pcace · 10-08-2022, 08:28 AM

Thanks also from here

works beautifully on PW5

I've tried all three versions posted in this thread, but it's not changing anything on my PW1. I've tried with the default images, as well as custom images.

When I installed KUAL initially, I moved the "KUAL-KDK-2.0.azw2" to documents/KUAL

Why is the title in Russian?

shamanNS · 01-06-2025, 09:02 AM

@cdhigh Because someone who is Russian created it like that.

@lalex-kiev It's not good idea making assumptions that users of this extension will always have only a single "scriptlet" /.sh entry in cc.db. The way your SQL query is written now it would set the same hotfix thumbnail image to all "scriptlets".

You should probably just use an absolute file path ( /mnt/us/documents/run_hotfix.sh, or whatever the filename is) for that location property in your SQL query.
