I'm still undecided how to add them... Right now, I simply reformat them as single books.
Yeah, I've run into that too & just have two Omnibuses with the same number. But is would be nice to have a "standard" way for Calibre to handle the omnibus situation.

As far as that goes, I wish publishers were all "very" clear when a book is an Omnibus. It is often quite unclear.

Yeah, annoying. But I haven't found a better solution yet.
