I've noticed that any metadata changes made to library files do not get updated on my kindle. I'm talking about even simple changes like the title. Even though in preferences it clearly states that with "Automatic management: calibre updates the metadata on the device in sync with the calibre library, on every connect". Well no it doesn't. Clicking on "update cached metadata on device" doesn't work either. And re-sendng the book doesn't overwrite as you would think, instead it sends a second copy which is absurd.
I initially thought this was a mobi problem but it doesn't update azw3 either.
