Metadata from filename problem

kad032000 · 05-24-2009, 02:26 AM

I'm using the solution discussed in this thread: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...light=metadata, minus the brackets around the series.

When I put in the solution and test a filename it shows everything as correct in the test section, but then when I actually add a book to the library, the entire filename, minus the extension, is used as the title. Everything else is correct. (Author is correct, series and series index are correct, title is entire filename).

Just FYI, I was having problems with even the test data showing up correctly when I was using version 0.5.11, but switching to 13 fixed that.
