Hi,

first: thanks for writing that plugin, it's highly useful.

But for some reason or other, when I import mp3s to calibre, I only get metadata stuff from the filename (which is. title - artist (writer)) instead of it being read from the mp3 tags (which are within the mp3 files in full glory) - which means no series, no series index, etc.

The 'Read information from tags rather than from filename' option is definitely checked/switched on, checked that twice already.

Any idea where this goes wrong?

Thanks again,

gaseous.
