calibre-web Filename on download

When downloading the comic files to for example Comic Zeal, the filename used is the one Calibre are renaming it to, which is mostly the author and a fraction of the title. But never the series, which is a little important.

Would it be possible to specify what parameters to keep in the filename when downloading files? And maybe also the order of the parameters - Maybe in the admin page or something like that.

Could be something like %series %title - and then the file is renamed when downloading. Could also be usefull to specify different behaviors for each filetype maybe :)

Hi,

I join the @mickkn request, it will be very useful to have possibility to specify output filename. Using Android software as Moon+ Reader, it will allow to sort book/comics by series easily with the name. Currently, I changed, in Calibre, the output configuration name to device by : {series} - {series_index:0>3s} - {title}. Is there any way to do the same thing ?

Thanks in advance.

I third this question/request.

I would also like to keep an eye on this. While the calibre GUI has a good way to do it, the content server doesn't seem to follow the same rules and having it done through here would probably be easier and add a lot of value to the application.
