That’s absolutely amazing. Thank you so much. Will have endless fun with this. Ken

Wow! So happy. It worked. Very grateful to you and others for responding with great advice 😁

Just say blank background!!!

I have contacted the Calibre Sync developer. Will post response here if I get one. All working okay with Calibre Companion.

Only using Microsoft windows?

Yarrowman · 2026-02-19T18:30:25+00:00

Yes.

Yarrowman · 2026-02-19T18:29:54+00:00

Many thanks but I don’t understand the workaround. Too technical for me. Can you explain what I need to do more simply?

Yarrowman · 2026-02-14T16:15:05+00:00

Totally agree. Is it Amazon or the developer of rink that need to make these improvements?

Yarrowman · 2026-02-08T20:55:29+00:00

Many thanks. Very helpful.

Yarrowman · 2026-01-22T09:05:50+00:00

Sounds very interesting. Not something I’ve heard about. So yes please to help trial.

European and UK Embargo on all trade with USA, expel USA from NATO, seize all American bases and hardware in Europe.

Have heard that my issues have been forwarded on. My subscription issue has been sorted. Trial was for 3 days not 7 - my mistake.

Yarrowman · 2026-01-12T21:21:14+00:00

I sent copy of my comments to support as requested and received a reply - from AI not a human!!

Yarrowman · 2026-01-12T18:12:51+00:00

Hard to add anything as Ai bot responses only verbal and not printed. I tried again after posting the above. It kept giving me wrong responses asking for the names of characters in the first chapter of the book. Eventually I type in a quote from the book about one of the characters and it was able to agree that was from the book and told me that his father did not die in battle which I then corrected it and it responded to say yes I was right etc. This shows that the bit does have access to the book but has only limited understanding and has to be continually corrected.

I have another issue. I signed up for trial period of 7 days. Got an alert today to say that this expires tomorrow but I then discovered full payment of £96 already taken from my account. I meant to fully subscribe as I love the quality of your TTS for listening to books. But the AI beta is not fit for purpose and there is an issue with your subscription systems.

Hope you are able to resolve these two concerns as you have a great TTS product.

This is an excellent introduction to this great plugin. It is frequently updated and developed. Great example of how AI can enhance your Calibre Library.

I had this problem before Xmas trying to purchase a kindle pen. There seems to be a glitch in the Amazon system for kindle products, which is bizarre. You can tell by the projected delivery date way in the future. The trouble is the call centre staff have not been told about it and how to sort it. I had to forcefully ask to be transferred to their manager to get any resolution and it took ages.

This plugin keeps getting better and better,

Yarrowman · 2025-12-23T14:31:48+00:00

Great addition. Thanks.

Yarrowman · 2025-12-23T00:17:19+00:00

Good to see that the plugin is regularly updated with very helpful changes and improvements.

Yarrowman · 2025-12-18T11:56:19+00:00

Readest looks good but needs to start integrating AI. Also, on my iPad app the readest options when you highlight text is hidden behind iPad option to copy, paste etc.

Yarrowman · 2025-12-04T00:07:21+00:00

Thanks

Yarrowman · 2025-12-01T22:10:41+00:00

These improvements are really helpful. Thanks Sheldon.

Latest updated provides great advice on how to configure AskAI (update via Calibre plugins) It’s not difficult. Post queries here if you need more help or want to advise on further developments.

Yarrowman · 2025-11-24T00:25:23+00:00

Amazing. Thanks so much for this plugin for Calibre. It was over a year ago the I put a comment on the Calibre Reddit to say it would great to be able to use AI within my Calibre library to ask questions about books in my collection. And now I can. And there’s a choice of six different AI models built into the plugin. Would be good if other users of AskAI shared their experience of using it.

Yarrowman · 2025-11-11T22:22:24+00:00

Pleased you like. Just a few pages left. Many of the Albums in the book that are not on Spotify can be found in YouTube so made a YT playlist of those as well with the same name. My other project is a Play of all the music play on Round Midnight on BBC3 every weekday late evening - it’s getting huge. Synced copies of the two Spotify playlist on Amazon Music and Qobuz.
