I like the idea of this and am trying to (cluelessly) do similar on the T1. I've been trying to put together the steps and proccesses (and where to go to do the things), with some fantastic guidance from the post at:
Here's what I have (as guidance, in Preferences):
To output titles in a particular format
Plugins | (search for) Sony PRST1 | Click [Customize plugin]
Use code in the ‘Save Template’ text box to set the format:
{author_sort}/{title} - {authors}; or use, say:
{series} {series_index:0>3s} {authors} {title} {author_sort}
...I'm not sure that this is what I actually want, but it's a start! I'm not actually sure what I will end up with bso am looking to see what other people have done to face challenges. I just want to manage hundreds of books, in series (I'm using the Calibre series filed for that) and sub series (Prefixing the the title for that).
To control how Sony sorts and displays entries
| Sending books to device | Metadata Management (set to automatic)
| tweaks | Specify how SONY collections are sorted
sony_collection_sorting_rules = [(['series'], 'series_index')]
| metadata plugboard

To append series name and No to author on T1,
in 'Source template', type: {author_sort}{series:| - | }{series_index:0>2s}
in Destination Field, type: authors
Hopefully people on the forums can help me comment this into a guide I can produce for both new and experienced users...?
