Perhaps part of my problem is the way the files are named, with Surname, Firstname - series name - Title.extension
Unfortunately there are hundreds of books in the file, so it would be a monumental task o change all filenames first.

Looking for a way to make the filename the same as the original, and at same time to insert correct metadata from my flawed filenames. Is this possible.
