I'm hoping someone here can help me out with these two questions, or at least point me in the right direction, because I'm feeling a little lost. (Or just tell me if I'm trying to do something impossible again.)
1. When transferring metadata from Calibre to my Sony T1 Reader, the tags get "converted" to collections, obviously. What I'm trying to is prefix the collection names with the tag's (user or predefined) category (and sub-category, if applicable).
So, for example, if a book is tagged "Adventure", which is under the User Category "Genre", I want it to be part of the collection "Genre: Adventure; all the books that are part of the Dark Tower series in Calibre should be in a "Series: The Dark Tower" collection on the reader, etc.
I know (or at least I'm pretty sure) that this should be done with plugboards, but I'm lost as to how to go about this, and google doesn't seem to be cooperating today. Help?
2. How do I "re-convert", so to speak, Collections "back" to tags for books already in the Library, and is it possible to do this selectively (either manually for certain books, or (automatically?) for certain collections?
I have three collections on the reader to keep track of which books I've already read (as in, finished, as opposed to just opened), which I'm currently reading (which might be several), and which I'm planning to read next, and I usually "move" books from one collection to the other on the reader itself. Is there a way to make Calibre "import" these changes, or do I need to add/remove these tags manually? (This is the part I suspect may not be possible, but I figured I'd ask.)
Thanks for any help, folks, and my apologies for rambling.
