Hi,

there is a know problem, that the Pocketbook Devices (at least the Lux2) doesn't correctly show the correct book info, if the metadata isn't organized in a special way. It seems, that the Pocketbooks stop to read data from the series_info onwards.

Metadata that works:

<dc:subject>Versuch</dc:subject>
    <dc:language>de</dc:language>
    <dc:identifier opf:scheme="calibre">0587642b-2b94-4384-a79a-49541fa8a24d</dc:identifier>
    <meta content="0.7.2" name="Sigil version"/>
    <meta content="Metadaten-Test" name="calibre:title_sort"/>
    <meta content="{&quot;Klecks&quot;: &quot;&quot;}" name="calibre:author_link_map"/>
    <meta content="2014-10-26T10:28:34.540000+00:00" name="calibre:timestamp"/>
    <meta name="calibre:series" content="eBook Testdateien"/>
    <meta name="calibre:series_index" content="1.0"/>
    <meta name="cover" content="cover"/>

Metadat that does't work:

<dc:subject>Versuch</dc:subject>
    <dc:language>de</dc:language>
    <dc:identifier opf:scheme="calibre">928e1c34-32f7-497d-9437-b91765614d10</dc:identifier>
    <meta content="0.7.2" name="Sigil version"/>
    <meta name="calibre:series" content="eBook Testdateien"/>
    <meta name="calibre:series_index" content="1.0"/>
    <meta content="Metadaten-Test" name="calibre:title_sort"/>
    <meta content="{&quot;Klecks&quot;: &quot;&quot;}" name="calibre:author_link_map"/>
    <meta content="2014-10-26T10:28:34.540000+00:00" name="calibre:timestamp"/>
    <meta name="cover" content="cover"/>

As you can see, the only difference is the position of the calibre:series related information.

I already tried to edit the file \calibre-master\src\calibre\ebooks\metadata\opf2.py, but my python and knowledge of the calibre source isn't good enough to recognize where i have to change the source to get calibre to write the medadata in a format the Lux2 can recognize.

I already tried to change the smart_update, but that didn't work ...

    def smart_update(self, mi, replace_metadata=False, apply_null=False):
        for attr in ('title', 'authors', 'author_sort', 'title_sort', 'publisher', 'rating', 'isbn', 'tags', 'category', 'comments', 'book_producer', 'pubdate', 'user_categories', 'author_link_map', 'series', 'series_index'):
            val = getattr(mi, attr, None)
            is_null = val is None or val in ((), [], (None, None), {})
            if is_null:
                if apply_null and attr in {'series', 'tags', 'isbn', 'comments', 'publisher'}:
                    setattr(self, attr, ([] if attr == 'tags' else None))
            else:
                setattr(self, attr, val)

Can someone help?
