As for those missing page numbers: they ought to be retrievable from the file, at least PB-style page numbers. This requires venturing into the epubs and figuring it out from there. It's doable (figured out metadata access way back, but that's not a project goal), but is low prio... Showing deleted annotations is now possible, in preparation for (un)deleting, and changing colors. |

0.11 release
v0.11 release here: https://www.syncoda.nl/posts/2022/av...elease-0-11-0/
New beta releases attached for v0.11. Some fixes and minor changes. New are a RPM package, and possibly an .exe installer. These are now automatically generated. The .exe still need to be tweaked somewhat. Reworked were the location data processing, and the Linux device connection check. These points could use some testing, but otherwise the release will follow soon enough. Code:
0.11 Oct 22th 2022 - New release packaging (Linux .deb and .rpm; Windows .zip and .exe installer) - Fixed: after viewer update (row addition/removal), re-apply filters - Fixed: also reload annotations when annotation count remains the same - Fixed: only rescan unmounted devices upon device monitor changes (Linux mainly) - Internal: Changed and extended highlight/note location data parsing (WIP) - Linux (Fedora): output CLI configuration messages using printf instead of as debug messages - Linux: fixed changelog location - Linux: added manpage - Internal: reworked "connected" check logic - Show update nag screen every 6 months if automatic updates are disabled I've had some thoughts about grouping notes per chapter or sub-section, but that'll require an epubcfi parser. That needn't be too complex however. It could also be used to generate an approximate ordering/page numbers, as discussed earlier. And perhaps even a document preview, however I'm not too keen on including a full HTML browser, so it probably won't be pretty. On the other hand, there's kobo support, multiple tabs or koreader support, in order of increasing complexity... --- PS. see Windows related remarks here: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...5&postcount=51 v0.11 release here: https://www.syncoda.nl/posts/2022/av...elease-0-11-0/ Last edited by wold; 10-30-2022 at 04:49 AM. Reason: added windows .zip + .exe |

A Vivlio? The brand was mentioned in the firmware thread. Out of curiosity, does it run the Vivlio or PB firmware? |

And windows v0.11 beta .zip and the .exe installers were added above.
The .exe installer triggered one warning: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/...44d1c/behavior. The Miscrosoft sandbox there also reports network access, but this seems Microsoft-related (IPs for Azure and Akamai). I couldn't reproduce the network access locally with wireshark, so it seems OK. BTW, its an NSIS installer build with cmake. |

https://www.vivlio.com/en/e-readers/inkpad-3-e-reader/ - Firmware (Vivlio) : V740.6.5.1808 - Relase Date : 2022/02/21 It is a Vivlio custom firmware for the "Cultura" store. I think it is based on Pocketbook firmware 6.5.1379. • Today I installed the latest version V0.11.0, it works perfectly as before. Installation and startup went without a problem. Quote:
Spoiler:
• Importing the font also works without any problems. Already existing fonts are recognized correctly. PS: It would be interesting if it were possible to export "Fonts" to Koreader Spoiler:
The application is useful to me, and I think I will use it in the future, thank you. Last edited by Michal Jancik; 10-25-2022 at 03:36 PM. |

Adding KOReader detection is something I will look into. For reading KOR annotations various alternatives exist, including a similar app. The challenge with KOR annotations is they involve separate files, and given the way AVA currently works, that might get I/O limited fast*. But nevertheless I'm curious * As right now there's no 'central' DB, with the 'library' part aimed at detecting devices, and accessing their annotations. |

Attached is an early windows-only beta for v0.12.
1) Detect/support PocketBook HD/HD2 readers A work in progress for supporting late 5.x readers. 2) Improved restoring the window size and position on startup (especially for multiple monitor setups) Useful for laptop users. It prevents the app being shown off-screen, after disconnecting extra screens. PS. On virustotal.com the SecureAge antivirus may flag the .exe as malicious.

I am using the 0.12 on ubuntu. With the inclusion of the screenshots created by the device this has become for me a very advanced solution. Great work

Pushed out AVATeR v0.13.1: https://www.syncoda.nl/software/avater/releases/0.13.1/
There's new Fedora 37 and Debian 12 releases, that use Qt6. And a new sort by database ID mode, in case your e-readers clock does funky things, like mine Windows Qt was also updated. If AVATeR doesn't start on Windows 11, without warning, this ought to fix it (It traced back to the Qt library with a pretty generic 0x000005 error). Windows 7/8 support is dropped though. |
