I'm not replicating the success you're getting, but I think that's because I have a bigger problem.

Using the default regex to test in the test tool in Adding Books, I'm not even getting the right response for a basic

Code:

(?P<title>.+) - (?P<author>[^_]+)

Test Title - Test Author

gives me

Title: No match
Authors: Unknown

I tried uninstalling/reinstalling the application, but that didn't help.

Any ideas about this? Is something corrupt?
