MelBR,

are you 'priming' the metadata identifier with the ISBN before looking for Metadata.
There's an Extract ISBN plugin that will do that automagically.

kiwidude wrote some useful insights on this recently - my recollection is that there's no silver bullet... sorry I can't recall where he wrote about it, you could use search to browse his recent posts in the Calibre forum.
