Hi Doitsu,
I installed the newest version (0.6.8) after found some errors in the previous one. After some successful times, today I've seen the following: Status: failed Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Applications/Sigil.app/Contents/plugin_launchers/python/launcher.py", line 142, in launch self.exitcode = target_script.run(container) File "/Users/*****/Library/Application Support/sigil-ebook/sigil/plugins/KindleGenQt/plugin.py", line 745, in run if dc_identifier.startswith('urn'): AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'startswith' Error: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'startswith' So I uninstall both versions and erased their preference files. Then I reinstall version 0.6.8, but I found the same error message. I've also installed version 0.5.5 and, ¡eureka! it functions as it should (well, sort of: I needed to write the path to kindlegen executable in my system). Although I can get the azw3 from the epub file as usual, I'd like to use the 0.6.8 version: it allows to write the true ASIN so adding a fake one isn't necessary anymore. [ macOS 12.4 Sigil 1.9.10 kindlegen V2.9 build 0000-kdevbld ] |

Hi Doitsu,
Today I've noticed that using the last version of KindleGen (KindleGenQt version 0.6.8) makes the resulting azw3 been recognized by my Kindle Voyage as "doc", not as "book", when it is side downloaded. Is this as intended or is a bug? Thank you |

By default, the plugin will only add an EBOK metadata entry, if you add a real or fake ASIN. If you want to mark an ebook as a book, make sure that both the Add Asin and AZW3 options are checked.

Hi all!
- macOS 10.15.7 - Sigil 1.9.20 installed in "Applications" folder - Kindle Previewer 3.67.0 installed in "Applications" folder - KindleGenQt 0.6.8 (checked "Use Bundle Python") - jhowell's Calibre KFX Output plugin 1.64.0 What do i need to do to generate KFX files using Sigil? How and where to install KFX Output plugin? Or is it still necessary to install the Calibre for this? Many thanks for answers! |

You will need to use calibre.

I know of no KFX output plugins for Sigil. If there is one, the author doesn't use these forums to advertise it.
What's KindleGenQt? You mentioned a Sigil plugin setting, but if that's a Sigil plugin, it must be another hedge plugin. Never mind, I see that's what Doitsu has named the newest version of his Sigil plugin. Last edited by DiapDealer; 10-06-2022 at 06:10 PM. |

If KFX output works in Calibre, you should be able to generate .kfx files with my KindleGen plugin. |

FWIW, it is on my long term to-do list to make a python library to replace jhowells KFX Output plugin's use of calibre specific modules. That way it would be completely stand alone and could be integrated into a Sigil plugin and other software (ie. KindleUnpack). I just haven't had time to do that yet.

Hi @Doitsu,
Great job on this plugin, and supporting it after all these years! I just tried using v0.6.8 along with Kindle Previewer v3.72.0. I get no errors when generating either the dual mobi/azw3 or single azw3 file, but when I try to open the resulting file in KP I get this error: Code:
Kindle Previewer does not support this file, which has either been created using an older version of KindleGen or a third party application. We recommend using EPUB or DOCX format directly for previewing and publishing your book on Kindle. I haven't tried side-loading the file on a kindle yet. I wanted to avoid that sneakernet by just using Kindle Previewer instead. Thanks |
