I'm slowly working on converting a couple thousand comics. I just downloaded maybe 30-40 and ran convert, and it processed maybe a dozen before popping up this error:

CbzMage error:: AggregateException: One or more errors occurred. (Not enough memory resources are available to process this command.)

The last comic listed seemed to have generated fine, so I tried running a convert again, and this time the error reappeared after maybe 5 conversions. I ran a few more conversions, each time getting the error after 5-7 books. But I was able to successfully convert everything, so maybe it was a certain pagecount threshold? I'm kind of hoping at some point I can just let this run for an hour at a time or something.

If I try setting CompressionLevel to "None", I get an error:

CbzMage error:: InvalidOperationException: Failed to convert configuration value at 'CompressionLevel' to type 'System.IO.Compression.CompressionLevel'.

Hi,

Great program! I'm not super great with cmd, but I was able to get it to work! Ever since Comixology went away, I've been looking for a means to back up my comics without 2 page spreads shrinking down! Your program fixes that, so thank you very much!

I do have a question though. When I started using your program today, I was using an older version of Kindle for PC (1.38.0 (65290), and was able to back up my comics just fine. Except when it came to newer comics. Those ones told me I had to upgrade to the latest version to be able to download the comic (Such as Void Rivals #6 or Wonder Woman #3). So I downloaded the newst version of Kindle for PC (2.2.0 (07623), and now when I download a comic, even ones I was able to successfully download on the older version of Kindle for PC, I get the following error:

Error reading metadate from MobiMetadataException: Did not get expected MOBI identifier.

Are the books downloaded using the new version of Kindle for PC not compatible with CbzMage?

Thanks,

I have an epub v3 file that has a fixed layout. The only reader I've found that can even read it at all is Thorium Reader which uses the readium-js library for epub rendering.

Unfortunately there isn't a way to print or convert an epub file in Thorium Reader and it's honestly fairly clunky to use. Trying to convert one with Calibre is a mess and it doesn't look like they're going to be getting any support for it any time soon.

Given the nature of this project, converting things to 1:1 cbz files, I was wondering if you could possibly add support for this.

I'm trying to run CbzMage on my macOS 13.1 machine. I'm currently getting the current error when I run the command "./CbzMage AzwConvert".

CbzMage fatal error. InvalidDataException: Failed to load configuration from file '/Users/alehel/cbzmage/CbzMageSettings.json'.

My AzwDirectory is as follows
"AzwDir": "/Users/alehel/kindle/My\ kindle\ Content/"

If I don't specify a AzwDir I get the following error.

CbzMage fatal error. Exception: Must configure AzwDir in AzwSettings.json or AzwSettings.User.json
So CbzMage does seem able to read the json. It therefore seems it's the directory it's having issues with. Is it possible to get a more detailed error message so I can try and figure out what's wrong?

Also, on another note, I see my Kindle data directory has kcr files, not azw files. Not sure if this is causing the issue. CbzMage might not be able to handle kcr files?

Hi,

First up, love the utility. Been a godsend for getting myself out of the horror of big A.

I've been running into some problems while converting a number of issues from Nightwing over various years. While the Kindle app shows the titles with the series years (see screenshot), they're being named without any series year as filenames. As a result, the app throws up errors about existing files because there's no distinction between the series.

Could it potentially do something like use an incremental suffix on duplicate names if it happens, and then I can sort it out in comictagger afterwards? Unfortunately, removing the already processed issues from the device and then reprocessing doesn't seem to then create the new titles. i.e. if I had both 1995 and 2011 version of issue 1 downloaded in Kindle, run Azwconvert and get a complaint about duplicate filenames, check which has been created as a CBZ, move it elsewhere and then remove the kindle download, a future azwconvert doesn't try to get the other series' issue any more.

Not quite sure how to title this. I ran out of room on my C drive, so I relocated my Kindle Books folder to my D drive. I left the already-downloaded files intact, and changed the Kindle app and CbzMage to point to the new D drive location. I was hoping that by leaving the files intact, the Kindle app would recognize them as already downloaded. No, instead it's forcing me to redownload everything. Fine, I can live with that.

The real problem, however, is that after I download a bunch of books (new and old, I can't tell as I'm downloading them) and then run CbzMage, your program sees the redownloaded books as newly updated, and has to parse through all of them. Not so bad, except that it never stops seeing them as updated. For example I downloaded a bunch last night, then ran CbzMage. It said something like (made up numbers as an example): 188 updated books found, 41 unconverted. It reads the 188, then converts the 41. So far, so good. But when I immediately ran CbzMage again, it said 188 updated books found, 0 unconverted. It's somehow failing to note that it already checked the redownloaded books for updates.

I followed the instructions, and everytime I enter something after clicking on the exe the program closes out.

CbzMage error:: IOException: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect. : 'C:\CbzMage\_Titles\[Marvel] Young Avengers Vol. 1 Style > Substance'

I assume it's the greater-than symbol in the comic title that's causing the issue. This one's a game-breaker, too; as long as that comic is downloaded, neither convert nor scan will run properly. (They all immediately give the error.)

After updating to ghostscript 10.02.0 I'm getting a MagickMissingDelegateErrorException when I try to convert a pdf. If I downgrade to the previous version it works correctly.
