hi kovid, just fetch metadata when mannualy editing theres no trouble
edit: rechecked yup i can edit everything manually , adding images from my hard drive , modyfing publisher , author , etc, the ¨erasing¨occurs when fetching data from the web ( both in isbndb or the other one) Last edited by josecastanon1; 10-20-2008 at 03:16 PM. |

that's strange. what happens if you open the eidt metadata dialog, change both the title and author and then click OK
