That's what I already figured out. It isn't just enough to know the literal use of the DB, but Sony's own use in order to make things smoother. Ignore that, and you can run afoul of conflicts and other ugliness that leads to bug.

Am I missing something to make this work correctly?

Thanks a lot!
The T1 driver that Kovid put together is a basic generic driver. It has nothing in it. So it doesn't have any capability of reading what is on the device, just sending things to it. The driver needs to be written to support that as far as I understand it. As I have said in previous posts, I'm still learning how Calibre is put together.
