[PRS Recollect]A folder-hierarchy-based collection generator
Hey, everyone,
I wrote a ebook collection generator based on folder structure, for Sony PRS 505 (probably also useful for 500/700). Please check it out and give feedbacks: http://code.google.com/p/prs-recollect/ howdypda Quote:

Hi howdypda and thanks for sharing.
Correct me if I'm wrong: PRS recollect does not support subfolders, eg: Code:
SD root -Sony Reader -database cache.xml -books -collectionname1 book1.pdf -collectionname11 book11.epub book12.lrf -collectionname2 book2.epub book3.txt (etc) |

Yes, unfortunately, the software only recognize ebooks that are stored under subfolders of "Sony Reader/books". I thought PRS505 doesn't support multi-level collections so a multi-level folder doesn't make much sense.

But that's the whole point of wanting folder support, so you can have multiple levels.
Perhaps you could create collections with the full path as a name? So for the example above you would get 3 collections (or even 4) collections. collectionname1 with book1.pdf, book11.epub, book12.lrf collectionname1\collectionname11 with book11.epub, book12.lrf collectionname2 with book2.epub, book3.txt collectionname11 with book11.epub, book12.lrf (this last option would/could be useful if collectionname2 were two have a subfolder also named collectionname11) |

Sounds like a good idea. I will try to add this feature to future versions in weekends. Please check out the google code page for update.
http://code.google.com/p/prs-recollect/ The python source code is also there for hacking and I welcome any kind of contribution to the project. Quote:
