Does anyone at least understand why the developer(s) made the extra effort to rename the file? The name of the file shouldn't matter in the least. Kindle doesn't care; it apparently uses some ID in the metadata to identify the file. I've yet to figure out how Amazon decides to name their books (apparently not from the metadata, since you say Calibre uses that to rename them).
I looked into Kindle metadata editors (thinking if I changed the name in the metadata, Calibre would be fooled), but I suspect that is a road fraught with despair. So I will stop bugging everyone.
I don't understand why more people aren't annoyed by losing their notes and highlights when their files get renamed after importing them into Calibre. When changing the sdr folder name and the files in it *does* work, it's not something I see the typical computer user bothering with, or even thinking to do.
