Hi boths,

I tried out both methods... but without success. Most probably I'm doing something wrong.

Jackie: I perfectly understand (from a rationale point of view) what you mean, but I'm unable to adapt the export parameters to fit.
I appologize in advance for the wording - as I use calibre in french, the names of the icons may not be 100% exact.

Basically, I go to Calibres preferences, select "sent to device" (third icon from the left). In the middle of the pop up, I have a field where it's written in "{author_sort}/{title} - {authors}". At the bottom, I have a list of fields, and if I understand right the explanation given, this field is meant to set up a model. I tried to change it to {authors}/{title} - {authors} but it does not change anything.
If I go to the device configuration itself, I see the same, but I don't know how to change the model to switch from "author_sort" to "authors".

Davidfor: I tried also to change the metadata table into the preferences. Basically, I have already one setting for "any format:any device = ([{series}{series_index:0>2s| | – }{title}] -> title)" Now, I changed it to: any format:any device = ([{series}{series_index:0>2s| | – }{title}] -> title), ([program: raw_list('authors', ', ')] -> authors). But... My poor Will Adams is still split into Will and Adams.

Most probably I miss something, but I don't know what... I would like avoid to change my full Calibre library to First N / Last N...

Have a nice day
