I see what you're saying. That wasn't it. It wasn't creating additional records in the library itself. It was actually creating a new folder with a new copy of the file on my hard drive each time I opened a .cbr in Calibre's ebook viewer. I think I've resolved the issue by opening the files with another app, though. It's just strange—I can't imagine why Calibre would create extra copies of a .cbr file upon opening in the Calibre ebook viewer.
