As I stated earlier you have to delete and reimport books in Mantano to make updated metadata show up. There is no refresh metadata function in Mantano.
CC gets the information about the tags from calibre, not from inside the books. Mantano gets the information about the tags from inside the books, not from calibre.
Refresh metadata in Mantano would have been a great feature. Perhaps even that Mantano check the timestamp of the books, in the background and automatically refresh metadata for updated books, and delete removed books and add new ones. Or even that Mantano detects and use a database with information saved by calibre in the top of the book folder. And rules for how the books should be added to different collections would also be nice. For instance you could have regular regular expressions and logical operators that map to a collection:
sci(ence)*\s?fi(ction)* OR space\s?opera maps the book to the collection "Science Fiction", if any tag match.
