Find Obok Failed DeDRM

bw777 · Today, 04:18 PM

Hello. Loading epub files downloaded from Kobo into Adobe Digital Editions, then dragging the resultant epub from the Digital Editions folder into Calibre, imports books correctly. However, I started using Obok DeDRM for its convenience, and spot checking the results seemed successful. However, now I've discovered that it's been occasionally failing, leaving me with some sort of encoded book about once in every dozen. So as I find the failed books I have manually replaced those via ADE.

So, first, is there a known issue with Obok failing?

And, second, is there a way to find these files that failed import without having to view every book? I have several thousand books, so searches take some time, and i haven't found a reliable search yet (Quality Check - Check DRM doesn't find them, so i assume Obok did something to them).

Thank you.

Try running the Count Pages plugin - it should fail with the DRMed books.
