when importing file title metadata screwed up

dschiri1 · 07-25-2009, 12:58 AM

Hi,
I'm trying to import a file into calibre an example filename is

John Dean Fox - Gods Vs dogs - War.txt

author imports correctly as John Dean Fox
but the title imports as Fox, John Dean - Gods Vs dogs - War
series imported correctly as War[1]

My advanced settings is
(?P<Author>.+) - (?P<Title>.+) - (?P<Series>.+)
What am I doing wrong?
David
