@BetterRed - Thank you so much for the tip! Your plugin is amazing and really extends the core functionaity! It had just the functionality i was looking for and i've nearly got it working as planned. However i hit a minor snag.

I now have 5 librarys. And have a watch folder and seperate library destination folders for each one.

I've added config for the following 2 tweaks:

Tweaks for per Library - 'Auto-Add Directory'
Tweaks for per Library - 'Save to Directory'

However the auto-add function only runs a job when i quick-switch over to each library from within calibre.

I'm assuming there would be a background timer process that checks these watchfolders automatically every day 5 minutes and processes and files found in the folders however in my experience i have to toggle to each library database for it to run.

Am i missing some config? If you need me to test/check anything please let me know, i'm a newb but more than happy to help where i can?
