or something of that nature. i changed it to a simple single-tier...

{author_list} - {title}

...structure instead, and everything seems to be properly indexing and working now. bizarre. maybe worth looking into for future calibre revisions?
I don't think you have a faulty unit. If what you write above is what you put in calibre, it won't work right. Make sure of these things first:
- latest version of calibre (0.9.12 as of right now)
- in preferences - sending books to device: restore defaults

That should help.

The correct syntax for the default save template would be:
Code:
{author_sort}/{title} - {authors}
If you in fact use a \ in there that might be causing the problem.
