KO Reader file manager doesnot show calibre news recipe in mobi format.
KO reader file manager doesnot read the news downloaded from calibre if downloaded in mobi format. The news recipe downloaded in epub format are however shown.
I want the news to be downloaded on kindle format so that i can read it in both kindle default reader and KO reader for night mode. However, I am not able to do so as news fetched in kindle format are not shown in KO reader file manager and hence donot allow me to read it in night mode. ALSO, if the KO reader could not flash everytime i turned new page it would avoid eye strain. |

KOReader on Kobos can read .mobi files, perhaps they are disabled in the Kindle versions to avoid conflicts?

They switched the file extension from .mobi to .pobi at one point, which is good, since I'm fairly sure whatever engine we're using for MOBI rendering wouldn't handle them properly.

So KO reader basically doesnot support azw, prc and pobi format. Right?

Hey Ken, I appreciate your tips. I already tried renaming extension from .pobi to .mobi but it doesnot help.
As with .prc files running on KOReader for Kindle latest nighly build, opening the .prc file closes the KO Reader and i return to home screen with kual cover on my main screen of kindle.The same thing happens when I try opening .azw files on my kindle using KO Reader. So, I was just checking to make sure KO Reader for kindle does it support .prc, .azw and .pobi files. I guess I would have to wait for some time. Atleast i am happy, .prc files are detected by KO Reader file manager in kindle. It is just not able to open it. With .pobi/.mobi news, KO reader cannot show it in file manager. |

@mitra: That would imply a crash, which is decidedly not an expected behavior
![]() ![]() What does KOReader's crash.log (should be in the koreader folder) has to say about it? |

The crash log says nothing. It is an empty file
