I have a small problem. I try to send books from my Calibre library to my Android phone (Samsung Galaxy S2). I specified in the device plugin to use subdirectories and entered the already on the device existing directory called "eBooks" into the list of the plugin settings.

But the files are always sent to the main directory of my external sdcard (external is ok, was set to default by me in Calibre). Does anyone have an idea what it is I am doing wrong and how to solve this issue?

PS:
I also would like to put specific genres in subdirs. Could someone point me in the right direction how to manage that (through metatags maybe)? Is there somewhere a guide how to do that?

PPS:
By using the user defined usb driver it works, books are stored in the specified directory. Any idea how I can manage that while using the normal android plugin?
