Import on Filename changes mid import due to book error

I'm getting an error when trying to import a big collection of ebooks, mostly old formats with filenames all in the same naming format, so I'm importing them on filename not metadata. I've tried 4 times now and every time about half way through the import changes and messes up the import so the whole filename is the Title field. I get an error message at the end of the import. I've had 3 different books give the error so far, all pdf's, if I import the books on their own they import fine with no error. When I look thorough the imported books every book after the one giving the error is imported wrongly so the whole filename is the Title field from then on.

Disable the DRM removal plugin and you should be fine.

Thanks Kovid. Is it a bug in a recent Calibre update or the DeDRM plugin? I've never had it happen before, then 4 times in a row. The DeDRM plugin is kind of useful.

It is a bug in the DeDRM plugin, that was exposed by a recent calibre change. I imagine its authors will fix it soon enough. And I have committed some code that prevents bugs in plugins from preventing successful reading of file metadata.
