Edit: DNSB, just saw your post. 9.15
AFAIK thew Plugboard used Calibre DB fields, not the books metadata. But I am a bit puzzled on why Send To Device did not update that with the current values.

Well, going forward I've learned how to correct it. Being pointed to the .opf for editing was an eye opener for fixing the translator problem.
