Full Version: List sort order

Hi everybody,

my index contains the <n> albums list and one Artist list. <n> albums is sorted by default (alphabetical - Album title). This is ok.

Artist list has all artist in alphabetical order and subsequently for each artist the Album(s) as subfolders.
I would like to sort the albums by *date* and not in alphabetical order. But as soon as I achieve this, the <n> albums list looses the alphabetical sort order.

Here my settings:

indexTags: Artist, Genre, Rating, Live=1, Compilation=1, #audiodata

itemTags: artistsort, albumartist, date, discnumber, tracknumber, title

tagOptions: artist.ignore.*={The}, Album.sortTags={Date}

tagValue: DiscSubtitle.default={DiscNumber}, Artist.value.index.sort={artistsort}

How to change my settings?

Sincerely

Martin
Lists of albums are always sorted in the same way wherever an album list appears. If you customize the sort order using Album.sortTags, the custom sort order is applied to all album lists.
I too would like to sort Albums by Date when in an artist context, but keep them alpha in the Album index. Would be a useful enhancement at some point.
Understood, and it is on my (very long) to-do list.
