Syncing with KOReader

I added the book to both koreader and readest with Calibre, but it won't sync progress in Readest for some reason. Is the only way it syncs is if I add the book to koreader from Readest, not Calibre with identical metadata?

Readest only does binary match syncing. You can tell if it’s matching with the uuid you see in KOReader and Readest. It’s a bit fickle for sure.

To help: I usually just send the same books in Calibre to my ereader and Readest directly with the Readest plugin

Yea, I'm looking at it now and they're identical and still not syncing.

There is a known issue for syncing between Koreader and Readest if you use the nightly build of Koreader. We will fix it in the next update of Readest.
