I have updated the code to report a better error message. It happens when the selected book is not available in the format(s) that you require for syncing (see/change the formats under Customize plugin), so you need to convert first. This is now also printed in the version 1.0.2 rather than the ugly error message you mentioned.

I installed and tried to use the plugin with the following results:
First of it all, i try to sync to a network share on a NAS, i have only password protected shares. I use this with calibre on a mac. When i enter my credentials in your plugin, calibre wont start anymore without errors. Plugin tells that i have too much ":" in my settings. I entered the path to my share in this way: "userasswd@NAS:/share/folder" Obviously rsync wont work because of the missing password on the NAS... My second "problem" is that i would send the whole library to the NAS, including the database and all folders inside my library, not only a sort of files. I want to use that rsync-feature as a backup for the whole library... |

This is great thanks for this - excellent work!!!
One quick q: I'm able to send books via your plug-in to my Kindle. But the refresh isn't working. The books show up after I reboot the Kindle though. On a Kindle PW 3 running 5.8.7.0.1. Here's my settings: root@192.168.1.9:/mnt/base-us/documents/ ; rsync ; MOBI,EPUB,TXT ; 1 Thanks again! |

"lipc-set-prop -- com.lab126.scanner doFullScan 1" (In the plug-in, it was set to be dbus-send --system /default com.lab126.powerd.resuming int32:1 but I guess that's depreciated now) Working now! |

I am glad you found the plugin useful! I only own the old Kindle Keyboard (still works wonderfully btw), therefore just the older way of refreshing. With the original plugin, did it say 'Error refreshing files on Kindle:' ? If so then the plugin can simply run your command in case of this error (ideally this would be based on the Kindle version but I do not have the time to figure that out)

I tried installing the 1.0.2 version on Calibre 5.7.X and received the following error. The error appears to be due to a later version of Python (3?) being use. The fix should be reasonably easy to implement. I may be able to help if you'd like.

The plugin is outdated and has not been ported to work with python3 based calibre versions (> 5.0)

The originator hasn't logged on for nearly 4 years - so if he doesn't respond… Post the new version as an attachment to a new reply and PM one of the Mods listed at bottom of main calibre forum asking that the attachment be mooved to the first post. Thanks for your help. BR |

Hi! Made the upgrade to python3, just few changes. Tested and working under linux, ubuntu 20.04 and latest calibre version. If someone can test in other systems... Cheers!
