Calibre doesn't use the directory info in any way to sort or label the incoming books. If the Author and series info were part of the file name calibre can use that info to fill in the author and series fields with the right regex under Preferences - Adding Books when adding the books to the library.

Since you have all the formats for a given book in one directory if you choose the correct "add books dropdown" then all formats of the same book will be added to one book entry.
