#calibre — Public Fediverse posts

Merda! Booklore está descontinuado? E agora? Porque me nego a ter Calibre sobre Docker, é un cristo de manter a longo prazo.

#booklore #calibre

@pnadigital ich bin auf einen #Kobo umgestiegen. Im Moment lese ich da noch ein paar alte Bücher, die ich schon habe aber ich muss mir langsam über Nachschub Gedanken machen. Idealerweise Anbieter, bei denen ich EPUB Dateien kaufen und herunterladen kann. Die kann ich dann über #Calibre auf meinen Kobo laden. Das müssten natürlich Anbieter sein, bei denen die Lizenz das hergibt. Heutzutage kauft man ja keine Bücher mehr, sondern nur noch die Lizenz, sie zu lesen.

#WritersCoffeeClub September 5: “Do you track your word count? How? Why?”

Yes, via #Calibre , using the EPUB version of the manuscripts.

I find it useful to determine how large the word count of my "Master Volume" is - the collection of all the German folk tales I have translated so far (currently, it's at 723,482 words). For my book manuscripts, the word count gives a useful gauge how long they will be in comparison to my previous books.

Time for a Come to Jeebus moment: I will never get along with #calibre ebook management.

It's an incredible, capable, venerable piece of software, and my partially blind ass just continuously gets gut punched by its interface hard and often enough that I spent a chunk of this evening picking apart the broken bits of 5 separate Calibre libraries I've tried to maintain over time. All failed.

So, I now have a sanely curated set of named folders on my NAS for ebooks:

I am pleased with this arrangement.

Sometimes (often?) a nicely arranged #UNIX filesystem is chefs kiss perfect!

Currently, I'm struggling with the horrible 90s developer-only user interface of #Calibre, the #OPDS capabilities and general #UX of 10y+ old iOS apps (or even new ones like @getbookshelves), and how reading progress syncing just isn't an option anywhere.

Am I missing something, or is that what's currently out there?

A fork of Calibre called Clbre, because the AI is stripped out, hit a rather appropriate commit number.

Alguien más lee que ahora Calibre permite crear portadas de libros con fotos de menores de edad desnudas? 🤔

Una posible exageración, claro. Pero desde luego son funciones que sobran y que hacen pensar que usar un fork (CLbre) o una versión vieja del programa tendrá más ventajas.

Update to Calibre-Web: Worth it?: https://cliff538.com/2026/08/31/update-to-calibreweb-worth-it.html

Out on the road, I’ve had time to fully investigate my Calibre-Web setup. I wrote a short post about it, but this is an update on using it and whether it’s worth the setup time.

#books #calibre #calibreweb

On ne va pas se mentir, l'UI et l'UX de Calibre c'est pas ouf quand même.

#Calibre #IA #IA_Slop #FuckIA

Dans quel monde la génération de pochette de livres par IA est une bonne idée ? D'où un logiciel qui permet d'organiser des ebooks cautionne des entreprises qui ont détruit des milliers de bouquins, pillé des œuvres en se foutant allègrement du droit d'auteur ?

#Calibre #IA #IA_Slop #FuckIA

Le changelog de #Calibre 9.14 :
- Allow generating book covers using AI with different cover styles such as romance, sci-fi, pulp fiction etc.

📚 Calibre 9.14 aduce generarea de copertine pentru e-book-uri cu Inteligență Artificială!

Articolul de pe LinuxEasy.org detaliază lansarea versiunii Calibre 9.14, cel mai popular manager de biblioteci digitale și convertor de cărți electronice open-source, care introduce un instrument inovator bazat pe IA pentru crearea de copertine personalizate.

✨ Punctele cheie ale actualizării Calibre 9.14:

🎨 Generare de copertine bazată pe IA:
• Noul generator integrat folosește modele de Inteligență Artificială pentru a crea imagini de copertă pe baza titlului, autorului și a rezumatului sau genului cărții.
• Utilizatorii pot introduce prompt-uri text pentru a ajusta stilul artistic (de la ilustrații moderne la stiluri clasice sau picturi).

📚 Optimizări pentru editarea metadatelor:
• Procesul de extragere și organizare a detaliilor despre cărți (autor, serie, etichete) a fost accelerat, permițând actualizarea automată din mai multe surse online simultan.

⚡ Conversie de formate mai rapidă:
• Motorul de conversie (EPUB, MOBI, PDF, AZW3) beneficiază de optimizări de performanță și gestionare mai bună a fonturilor și a stilurilor CSS embedded.

🛠️ Corecții de bug-uri și compatibilitate:
• Îmbunătățiri ale interfeței utilizator și rezolvarea unor erori legate de sincronizarea cu cititoarele e-reader (Kindle, Kobo, PocketBook) pe sistemele Linux, Windows și macOS.

📌 Concluzie:

Calibre 9.14 demonstrează modul în care instrumentele clasice de gestionare a conținutului pot integra tehnologii moderne de generare vizuală pentru a facilita munca cititorilor și a autorilor independenți! 🚀

Oh for fuck's sake what is wrong with these people?

" #Calibre 9.14 introduces more #AI features, including the ability to generate #book covers using AI with different cover styles such as #romance, #scifi, pulp #fiction, etc., as well as #Anthropic and #Grok backends for #Claude and Grok models..."

I love Calibre and have used it for many years but what it needs is a UI facelift, not this. 🤦‍♂️

#genAI #AIslop #foss

So what's an alternative to Calibre that lets me organize epubs, edit the metadata, and copy them to my Kobo? I see lots of epub readers, but I almost never read them on my laptop.

I think the Kobo Clara BW just shows up as a USB device, so that might not be a feature I need. Maybe I can just organize them in directories…

Note that I don't want a server of any kind or something that only runs in Docker.

Calibre 9.14 porta l’intelligenza artificiale nella gestione degli ebook con una nuova funzione per creare copertine personalizzate. Arrivano anche nuovi backend AI, correzioni e importanti aggiornamenti di sicurezza. #Calibre #Linux #OpenSource #Ebook #IntelligenzaArtificiale #LinuxEasy https://www.linuxeasy.org/calibre-9-14-porta-la-generazione-di-copertine-ebook-con-lintelligenza-artificiale/

The top new feature of the latest Calibre release is that you can now AI generate book covers.

Fuck this timeline.

Question for the #calibre #koreader #calibrewebautomated hivemind:

I've got koreader on my hacked kindle, and can access my calibre-web-automated library over OPDS, but it's ugly and I can only search, or browse an alphabetical list of books.

Is there a better/nicer way to access the library? The OPDS implementation on #crosspointreader at least lets me browse by author and see the metafolders of recently added, etc.

* answer in the replies, this is perfect: https://github.com/greywolf1499/opds_plus.koplugin

Nach kurzer Recherche habe ich nun ein #Pocketbook. #Onleihe und #Overdrive bzw. #libbyapp sind integriert und das Ausleihen von #ebooks bei der #vöbb funktioniert einwandfrei. Dateien von meinem #Linux Rechner kann ich außerdem per Kabel einfach rüber kopieren, oder über #calibre verwalten. Kein Adobe oder Windows notwendig.

Nettes Extra: ich kann Notizen und Anmerkungen im Dokument mit dem mitgelieferten Stift erstellen. Klappt bisher alles ganz reibungslos.

Happy: got a Kobo Clara BW ereader and it's a big upgrade from my 2018 Kindle Paperwhite.
- treats my sideloaded books as part of my regular library instead of shunting them off into 'documents'
- sorts even sideloaded books by series, Author, etc
- integrated with Overdrive, so I can borrow books from my local public library directly from my device
- newer screen tech=faster refresh rates
- usb c is just nice

Anyways, it's awesome and I'm very happy.

I also debated a Boox Go Gen II with the stylus (I miss my Note 8 tablet w/stylus), but decided against it because of battery life, repairability, and water proofness (that tablet's battery pillowed and my battery repair failed).

Also, shout-out to Humble Bundle for selling me a ton of DRM-free books to sideload. I recently got the Mercedes Lackey and Robert Silverberg mega bundles. #calibre #kobo #ereaders #happyhappy #boox #humblebundle

Ich überlege mir einen e-book reader zu kaufen.
Ich weiß kindl ist ungeil aber was nimmt man stattdessen?

Ich hätte gerne etwas das funktioniert und wo ich e-books von überall her drauf nutzen kann.

Ich habe zb einen Calibre-Webserver.

Seit meiner Teenagerzeit lese ich fast gar nicht mehr und würde das gerne ändern.

Cool wäre vllt wenn es einen Sync zum Hörbuch (Audiobookshelf) gäbe?!

Edit: Danke. Es ist ein Pocketbook InkPad One geworden.

I skipped night so i can make this theme for Calibre-web...

It is very pretty tho...

If you use #CalibreWeb and are getting a database error after upgrading #Calibre, there's a temporary fix:

I just bought my first ebook outside of the Amazon 'ecosystem'! Tracey Nicholls' An Ethics of Improvisation.

- Found it on https://www.ebook.de/de
- Managed it via Calibre
-Added it to Zotero

It was *much more expensive* than on Amazon, but we all know how Amazon keeps their prices so incredibly low, therefore supporting an EU-based infrastructure felt like doing the right thing.

So far it seems a wonderful book.

Just migrated this #Mastodon server's #DockerCompose setup from #DockerDesktop to #Colima. (Also migrated #CalibreWeb.) On an 8 GB RAM M2 #Mac mini with 8 cores, you need all the memory and CPU savings you can get.

https://PhoenixTrap.com #blog post to come, because I ran into #database file permission problems with the #Docker Hardened Image for #PostgeSQL 17 and had to switch to the upstream official image.

@viq Adding #llm and #voicerecognition to #homeassistant give you instant comfort and Star Trek vibes. " Computer! Start the Dishwasher at 2pm!"

But I don't get the use case for my Book Library. Can #calibre index my books?

Got Melissa and I onto #calibreweb for our #kobo readers. I wrote a CLI tool to manipulate the #calibre and #calibreweb databases so I could automate things, but once that was done it was pretty straightforward to get the readers syncing with their native sync method.

I'm hesitant to expose plain HTTP outside the house, and Kobo seems to force HTTP for at least cover downloads, so for now they only sync when at home. Not a huge problem, but not ideal.

J'ai enfin installé Calibre-Web sur mon NAS et j'ai configuré ma liseuse Kobo pour qu'elle se synchronise avec. Maintenant, je peux ajouter des livres sur ma liseuse depuis n'importe où en les ajoutant juste à Calibre dans l'étagère Kobo-Calibre et en lançant une synchronisation.

Организация собственной библиотеки на сервере с веб-интерфейсом

Привет! Наверное, у каждого рано или поздно возникает вопрос: как упорядочить хаос с купленными (да, мы же против пиратства?) книгами в форматах PDF, DJVU и других , так чтобы: - получить к ним доступ как с мобильного устройства, так и с любимого ПК или Mac; - сохранять прогресс чтения между устройствами; - не терять книги в куче папок. Хочу поделиться решением, которое помогло мне организовать библиотеку.

@BlackAzizAnansi So hard to pick one let's see if I can go down the priority list

- #GIMP - https://www.gimp.org
- #Inkscape - https://inkscape.org
- #Aegisub - https://aegisub.org
- #calibre - https://calibre-ebook.com
- #qBittorrent - https://www.qbittorrent.org
- #ShareX - https://getsharex.com
- #OBS - https://obsproject.com

Took me 20 minutes just to trim it down to this. It could easily be 3x as long.
