When you copy a field to a multiple (authors is multiple), it separates on ','. This behavior simulates what happens if you have multiple authors to begin with. If you send a book with multiple authors in calibre's metadata, does something different happen?

The title issue is because you spelled author wrong in the first template. That was the major reason I first insisted that the user make a composite field, then use that.
You're right. Retested, worked. Sorry about that. Although I happened upon another error, the plugboard I first tested was
Code:
any format:any device [{authors} - {title}->title]
which Calibre responed to with
Code:
ERROR: Fehler: Fehler bei der Kommunikation mit dem Gerät

epub

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\device.py", line 69, in run
  File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\device.py", line 337, in _upload_books
KeyError: u'epub'
(By the way, the copy to clipboard is broken on that one, I had to type it by hand...)
These worked as expected:
Code:
epub:FOLDER_DEVICE [{authors} - {title}->title]
any format:FOLDER_DEVICE [{authors} - {title}->title]
epub:any device [{authors} - {title}->title]

Ah, I see. I dug up the PNG, it's recognizable in full size.
