Hello all,
Returning Calibre user here, using Mac OS Sierra
Trying to sync books with Marvin 3 on my iPad Pro 12.9" running iOS 10
Have not yet purchased premium upgrade for Marvin 3 because I'm evaluating it to make sure it does what I want it to.
Main problem I'm having is that books don't sync and sort properly once they get to Marvin 3.
epubs appear to list in proper series order, but comic book files (cbr, cbz) are syncing in reverse order. Also names of comic files are not being preserved from Calibre format, but instead are being renamed in some strange format with numbers I do not recognize from Calibre e-book metadata. This is *after* import into Marvin 3 - *before* import while selecting from the Calibre data server, the comic books have the proper Calibre names and order. Example:
Before import: "Star Wars: Dawn of the Jedi - Force Storm (2012) #2 (Of 5)"
After import: "Star Wars- Dawn of the Jedi - - Jan Duursema & John Ostrander_262"
What I want it to do is put all of my books and comic books in the proper order I have them arranged in using Calibre, and keeping the proper title as listed in Calibre. I am using the "number" metadata field to create the proper order which I believe is the correct approach. The Sort Title metadata field also is being used properly, from what I can see.
How can I get around this annoying glich? Is there some setting I am missing that makes it do this? Some setting in either Marvin 3 or Calibre, perhaps?
