Just a guess here, but each X-ray file will probably have a different ASIN, GUID and database name at least. The easiest way would be to create one "super" XML file containing all the terms (characters and topics) you want and use that as a base XML for all your books.

You can also read character from an XML or a text (UTF8 only) file. The TXT file format is as you described: Code:
Character or Topic Name Description Character or Topic Name Description I did not heavily test it so there may be a lack in error checking when reading from text files. Let me know if you run into any issues with it. |

You would then have to modify the XML manually using the format displayed within the one you saved. There is no easy way to mass-update Shelfari. |

I'd have to see the book / xml file to see what's going on. I imagine it's just not finding any of the people by name. In many cases you have to follow the instructions on making an alias file so it matches more names in the book (by searching through the .rawml file, saved when the option is check, to find what nicknames they go by).

Note that a common workaround for this is to send the book via PM (or upload in-thread in a password-protected ZIP and PM the password) --this enables the maintainer of whichever tool to work on a problem without making the media available to the world.
On a similar note, calibre bug reports can be marked Private so only the security team (Kovid) and reportee can access them. But we don't have a MobileRead bugreport system. |

Yes, I should have mentioned that the book should be PMed to me (and is deleted after testing) rather than being posted.
I got it downloaded anyway and will have a look when I get home from work. |
