Hi,

This thread sounds a lot like something I'd like to do with calibre and my T1, but haven't had any success. I've been trying to distill a specific process from the conversation, but all my attempts either result in syntax errors or undesirable name changes to my existing collections.

Would someone mind outlining a series of steps to follow, starting from the beginning--what kind of column to create in calibre, how its fields should be filled out, and including a properly formatted Sony renaming rule?

Hopefully something that still works with this:

sony_collection_renaming_rules = {'#genre': ''}

If it helps, I'm quoting from a post I made elsewhere that explains exactly what I'm hoping to do:

In calibre, I would like to have something like a Read? column where I can make a check mark on books I've read. If I send books marked as Read to my Sony, I'd like caliber to automatically populate a new set of Collections that separate the read and unread books. I think it might be possible to use the template language to check if Read? is true, and if it is, use a SONY renaming rule to append (Read) to the genre-based Collection name, creating a new Collection for read books. If something along these lines is possible, would someone mind explaining how to set this up?
