Sounds like the T1 is deciding to rebuild its database for some reason. What joy.

What happens if you add a EPUB/T1 plugboard that alters the metadata in the epub itself? This should ensure that if the T1 decides to re-read the metadata from the book, you get the same data that device_db tries to send.

Of course, you would need to resend the books once that plugboard is added. Auto metadata management does not affect what is in the book files themselves.
