"Failed to open the file!" - Fictionwise non-DRM ePubs on Libre

I just downloaded my collection of multiformat purchases off Fictionwise as ePub (all non-DRM) and put them on the SD card that comes with the Libre. They're in a folder called Fantasy, and I moved the freebie text files that came with to a folder called Freebies. The folder and all the files show up fine.

When I try to open one of the ePub files I d/l'd off Fictionwise, however, I get the error "Failed to open the file!" I tried using Calibre to transfer them over and they simply didn't show up at all. (It puts them in a folder called Books, which the Libre seems to totally ignore.) When I moved those out of the Books folder the Calibre put there, I was left with the original "Failed to open the file!" error.

What am I missing here? The Libre is supposed to be compatible with ePub, correct? It's also not reading metadata as a note, it's listing them by filename. Not sure if this is normal for the Libre or not, only just got it.
