Epub/Ebook management

[Kanashius]

One year ago, I created an Epub/Ebook manager. Its good for short loadingtime and Detailed Information about the Books. With the manager it comes an full-reader with readout-function (TTS), using installed voices.

This Program is used to Manage e-books/epubs. You can import directorys. A lot of information is read from the epub and saved in a database.
Most important is the speed of loading books, because the management should be used for lots of epubs.
All chargings are displayed. There is also an Sql-Console, if you want to edit a lot of entry, otherwise you can do a rightclick and edit every Element in another window.
Also there is a Epub-Reader to read the epubs just with a doubleclick at any entry.

Information saved in the database (if they can be read in the epub):
identifier, author, description, title, genre, creationdate, path, speach

Information about Epub-Reader:
The Epub-Reader opens Epubs and they can be read chapter by chapter.
At the left side there is a Listbox, where you can select the chapters
There is also a read out function, reading your epub. (You can change Voice and Audiooutput, but you need to have installed a TTS-Speach).

Also you can edit the font-size.

I translated the Programm in english to post it here. If you like it, please leave me a comment, also if you have any suggestions to make it better or if you found bugs.

I have rewritten the complete Project in C++ (QT). The speed was improved >10x.
There are also some other improvements. You can find it at my webside.

For more information and direct executables, please visit my website: http://kanashius.de/?page=autoitBuchverwaltung

Because i get Error -200 uploading the files, you need to visit my side to download. Maybe anyone of you have a suggestion to Upload it here.

Hi Kanashius - You seem to be interested in some things I am, Game Interaction aside.

Many people here, quite understandably, are wary of visiting sites of members they don't know, who haven't been around long. So posting a screenshot or two here would be very helpful.

Thanks for sharing.

P.S. Just repeating myself in case you read this topic first, but the same suggestion applies here also.

If you are trying to upload executables, I'm pretty sure you need to zip them first, but you may have gone over your file storage limit for all I know.

Its a 1.40 MB Zip-File. Normally it should upload. The sourcecode can be downloaded at my side, too. I guarante, thats there is no bad-software at my side. Also its hosted by bplaced -> i would loose the side, when i would upload there something like that. I just joined this community now. In the german community im better known

I know this was posted some 10 months ago, but I've only had my attention drawn back to this topic again today.

I couldn't help but notice the following, which is odd for a couple of reasons.

Does that mean that you posted a non-AutoIt created project at an AutoIt forum, in the AutoIt Examples section?

In a round-about way, you are also saying something like AutoIt is crap, so a bit odd to post that here don't you think?

To clarify, the only thing I see in the project that is not AutoIt code is the 7-Zip dll

On the left side of the page he links to is a C++ section, under that is the C++ version of this project. This one is listed under the AutoIt section on his site.

Oh, I first wrote the Project in AutoIt, my first programming-language. Then I wanted to learn a new language (C/C++), so I took the project and rewrote it.

I did not want to say, that AutoIt is bad. AutoIt is very cool and simple. A good language to get a cool Gui-Application very fast, or automate something. Only when its about speed, I would say, better use Java or C/C++.

I'm more active at the german Autoit-Forum (autoit.de). So, do not think, I lost AutoIt out of my eyes

 

With best regards, Kanashius

PS: I must say, my webside look terrible^^ I'm working at a rework, but this time I want to make it better, so I take the time I need

Fair enough. 

BrewManNH is braver than me ... I like things spelled out before I take the leap.

With any luck, your program will now get more interest.

P.S. Though I see it has indeed had much interest, now including mine, as I just downloaded all. THANKS for sharing!

Only when I have to, other than that I find it more trouble than it is worth most of the time ... but then I am on a slow machine and connection, and things take long enough to do as is.
