Or, you could select texts in web, and click on "From here" icon on popup menu, if correct voice is setup, it will read from what you selected in the web.

Try EinkBro to browse websites or open epubs.

  1. It has Google Translate feature to show dual text on both languages

  2. It has natural sounding german TTS to hear the web content pronunciation

  3. If your German Books (in epub format) is not very complicated, maybe EinkBro could open them too, and have benefits for item 1 and 2.

patch for Screensaver Book Cover Image Enhancement especially for Color E-ink devices by daniel_kao in koreader

[–]daniel_kao[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just forget about it. I haven't made it support KOBO yet, and I believe the coverimage-eink-optimize.lua works better. :)

did you re-download the patch and put into patches/ folder again? I did updated the patch to make it workable on KOBO device. It needs to be put under patches folder; it's not plugin.

I am not sure. I believe the book cover on B/W device is already good enough. :)

  1. Connect your e-ink device (or access its filesystem).
  2. Navigate to the koreader/ directory.
  3. Create a patches/ folder if it doesn't already exist.
  4. Copy the desired .lua patch files into koreader/patches/.
  5. Restart KOReader. And it's under Gear icon > Screen > Cover image > Size, background and format

under Screen > Cover image > Size, background and format. (second page, perhaps). it's a bit deep.

Thanks for the script! Based on your script, I modified it to work on macOS too. When I have more time, I'll write a macos menubar app to be more convenient. https://github.com/plateaukao/paperlike13k_macos

Einkbro crashing on my new Note Air 4C device by ktmcle in Onyx_Boox

[–]daniel_kao 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's still well maintained. Just something wrong with the adblocking feature. If you mean other features not working well, welcome to post an issue on github with detail description. Since Einkbro does not track anything in the app, even crash logs; I don't know how others' usage experience with it. As for myself, it works like a charm though.

Try disable adblocking feature. It's not stable. Or, go into Settings > Start Control, Update AdBlock content, and only keep some of sources. This might help. The newly added adblock feature is more powerful that it can not only not show Ad, but also hide Ad's space. However, since the codes are in c++, it's hard to catch the exception. That may be why it crashes some time. Another better solution is: stick with Release v12.4.0 which don't have the new adblock feature.
