For a number of years I have used mobireader as my library for both purchased and converted books.
My files are nearly all .prc (mobi).
I am neat with my metadata just Author Book Title and cover.
I have now bought a Kindle DXG and wish to switch to using Calibre as my main library.
The problem I have experienced is when I drop a .prc file into the library it then changes the title by adding the author to the beginning of the file name within windows explorer . I just want the file to remain the same, the name of the book ie Treasure Island.prc (or.mobi) or if I output it to epub.
As I do not want my files to change can anyone help please,with Janet and John instructions. I would be very grateful
