Minor Dropbox Metadata mishap

I use Dropbox to keep my Calibre library in sync between two PCs. It normally works like a dream.

The other day, however, I failed to notice I left Calibre open on one PC while I added books to another. I then had two "conflicted copy" metadata.db files in Dropbox.

As a test, I've renamed each one to metadata.db and then ran Check library. In both cases, Calibre reported Extra Titles.

What's the easiest/best way to bring the titles that are in the Calibre directory but not in the Calibre database back into Calibre?

Thanks,

Evans
