So I got it working. I must admit, I find the distinction between connecting to the content server and connecting as a wireless client to be confusing. It seems the later gets the metadata and the former gets the actual titles. Unfortunate that it needs to be a two step process. I assume it's necessary to do both each time you want to sync newly added titles to the android device? Is there an ordering?

So under "grouping drawer" settings I added "#genre" to "make groups for custom columns" which triggered a database update.

Now I see the following:

Code:
< genre
   computers.algorithms
   computers.architecture
   fiction.classic
I guess I was expecting a tree like:
Code:
< genre
   computers
      algorithms
      architecture
   fiction
      classic
I understand that the '.' separated notation is calibre's.

So then I selected "Hierarchical Groups" in "grouping drawer" and checked #genre, which triggered another database update but nothing changed in how it's being presented.

It's not a big deal, as clearly it's letting me see the sub genres in dotted notation. I was just curious.
