@legowerewolf What would be the appropriate fix for this issue?

1. Make calibre load epub3 files?
2. Pick the epub version if it is available?

[legowerewolf]

I'd say have it pick...

1. The default conversion output format
2. The first listed format supported by Calibre.

I think the problem here is that the plug-in is just checking the MIME type and not the file extension as well.

@steinarb Any plans to address this issue? I'd really love to use this plugin for Calibre, it's exactly what I was looking for - I just want to sync external OPDS libraries to my own so that I don't have to count on external content. However, any library that offers .epub3 fails to sync, even though Calibre supports epub3.

Ideally, it'd be great to be able to select which version you'd like to download if there are multiple versions. But to be honest, I'd accept any workaround, including just downloading the regular epub version.
