Hi Sabardeyn

Thanks for your reply. I'm guessing from what you wrote that there may be problems in the file naming, since I've configured Calibre to write the title field as part of the file name (and who knows what characters I've used there). I will experiment but for now here are the answers to your questions:

What version of calibre are you using?
1.46
On what operating system (Windows, Linux, Mac) and version?
Windows 8.1
The ebooks you're talking about, did they start as PDFs or were they a different format?
They started as pdfs
What device are you writing to? Is it your Samsung phone or something else?
Computer
You mention a "single directory", are you putting all the books in the same directory?
Yes
Can you give us an example of the ebook file names?
Determined by my setup in Calibre but it is author - title - ID
Can you give us the "single directory's" full path?
C:\process\done

Thank you.
