[Error] Metadata in FB2
When I modify some value in the metadata of a FB2 file, why these are not recorded in the file?
This is a problem when I transfer the file to my Papyre because it reads the metadata but these don't match those stored in Calibre. Regards. |

The metadata in a file is only updated in the following scenarios:
- Send To disk - Send to Device - Conversions |

In the first case is false, at least with FB2. In the second case, I can't test it because the Papyre (it's a Hanlin's clone) isn't recognized by Calibre as device. In the third, I don't know. But the important thing, I think, is that info must be stored/modified in file, no only save in database, when I modify the metadata. |

Writing metadata to an existing FB2 file is not supported.
