AFAIK Calibre MUST have a series_index value if there is a series.
The index can be 0, usually defaults to 1

Thanks so much for the information - I had a look through "tweaks" (I was focusing on "input" menus and "add books" etc.) and found a line for
use_series_auto_increment_tweak_when_importing = False
I suspect that in the older versions the installation default was True, since I don't believe I've ever so much as breathed on anything in that area. (At least not intentionally...
) Just flipped it and tried it, and that does indeed put it back to the old behavior!
My comment about the metadata applied to the internal metadata within the epub itself. Specifically, the entry within content.opf. I generate the epubs myself using Sigil, and I include a "<meta name="calibre:series" content="x" />" entry, but not the second line for series_index. Once the epub is entered into Calibre, it is automatically assigned an index value - the trouble was that for the past month or so - since 3.32.0, I think? - every new one I added was assigned an index value of 1. Fixed now, and all is great.
