...as a side note, it would be nice to have more information about what file is causing problems - I've seen a lot of errors, and I've never seen info about what filenames are causing them.

This is in 2.1.1, book metadata stored in folders, all folders have an OPF file (because I want to control the input).

When I upgraded to the new version, I decided to wipe out my old config and reload everything, so this is a complete from-scratch rescan.

I added a check for invalid overdrive chapter data so it doesn't crash the server for the next release.

If you turn on debug logs you may be able to see which book that was.
I try to put the media title or folder path in all error messages, this one was not caught so it wouldn't have it but if you spotted other error messages that don't have the title in it please let me know.

I did see one more without enough information to identify the file (I actually tried, but in the end I gave up):
