Output Directory

Is it possible to change the output Title of a book?
I change the books title on the conversion menu before hitting convert but when I look up the file in its folder the titles different to what i put in.
For example: I change the books title to 'Shield of Baal - 02 Tempestus' before converting, but afterwards it appears as 'Shield of Baal_ Tempestus - Braden Campbell'

Also it is possible to change the output folders, so that they go into a single folder rather than multipe sub folders?

yes, the calibre built-in cant do that, but
Plugboard, template, and custom composite column recipes

In Preferences_ Save to Disk
you can edit the Save Template
see the description of save template function in attachment.
it mention you can configure the output folder and what filename.
be sure to check the link above.. that was very important

In Preferences_ Metadata Plugboard
you can edit the Source Template with you own needs
because the metadata changes the way template you used.
