Auto-import is currently only partially working. I put an eBook in my auto-import folder, which Calibre then moved into the library folder successfully.

However, it did not update the database; I can't see the book in any UI, and the .db file was not modified when the book was moved. When I ran the database check, it listed the file it moved as 'Invalid Title'; How did it auto-import the eBook, move it into the library folder with correct Author subfolder etc, but then complain the title is invalid?

I then manually added the eBook from within the library directory (where Calibre moved it initally) and it successfully updated the .db file with it. Why is this different to the auto-import?
