Yes, that is what I'm saying. I want to use the send-to-device template to change the name of the file that I save to disc outside of my library, and it's not doing anything. you gave me a fix though so it's not really that important I suppose.

Okay, that does fix it, thank you. It doesn't really change the fact that, as I see it at least, it's a bug. Because changing {author_sort} to {author} actually changes the field that is output for the file name. Changing {title} to {title_sort} does nothing though, since both of them output {title_sort} for the file name.
