"The PD books that came with the JBL are named (mostly) Author Name#Book_Title.txt. This displays in the menu as Author, left justified in the first line, followed by the Title, right justified in the second line. TXT, PDF and FB2 format books are displayed in this manner. EPUB, MOBI, PRC and RTF files named exactly the same way are displayed in a single line with the # and underscores intact. Books with exactly the same file names are displayed differently depending on their extension."

I think you are running into a Calibre problem, and its one of the reasons I don't mess around with Calibre.

Jetbook books can be named virtually ANYTHING and still work.
Cap if I can be of further assistance, just yell sir.
