Is there a send to device plugin for m4b files
I'm setting up a new calibre library for epub and m4b, I can send to device (storage card A), with a template of {author_sort}/{series}/{series_index}_{title}, but m4b is not a selectable format to allow it to be sent (along with the epub) |

Thank you for your efforts!
I'm seeing the title being stripped of the final character. I thought you might like to know. This happens whether I drag-drop a m4b onto the library or use a monitored folder. I double-checked my metadata and the title field is intact and correct. I also noticed that you also chose to pull info from the composer field and concatenate it with the author. I wouldn't have, but I understand. The genre field imports just fine. I don't populate many other fields pre-import, so I can't speak to them. I hope this helps if you choose to maintain this plugin. It's been helpful for me. |

Is this supposed to work just by importing an m4b? I added one after running it through mp3tag, so I know it had tags, and it came back with everything unknown
