bump?

is my post confusing? will be happy to clarify anything that sounds obscure/opaque/etc.

I don't quite understand metadata - particularly why two articles downloaded from the same journal issue as pdf should display different behaviours on calibre: one of them shows the right title and author, and the other one shows (for instance) cryptic stuff like mes1100095a as the title and unknown as the author.

If I check their metadata on Calibre, I see no difference in terms of format. In the Calibre folder, though, after uploading them on the Sony, one ends up in a "unknown" folder and the other appears in a folder named after its author.

This happens five times out of ten. I now realize this post might look better in the Calibre forum...assuming that the Sony has got nothing to do with it?
