Change Author Sort for Sony

I have been reading posts and they do not work when I try to reset a tweak. I have a PRS-350 (Pocket Reader) and Calibre Version 0.7.47. In Calibre on the main screen it shows authors by FN LN. My author sort under Metadate is LN, FN. On my Sony, it is FN LN.

What can I do to fix this so it show authors on my Sony by Last Name?

Thanks.

There are 2 ways to do it.

The simplest is to go to Preferences - Plugins - Device Interface - Sony - Customize and check the box labelled Use author sort for author

If you wanted to manipulate both the author and title metadata, as they appear on your Sony, you would be better doing it all in the Preferences - Metadata Plugboard option.
