discnumber wrong order - navarro - 28-11-2013 23:24

Hi All,
I've just installed the minimserver(0.72) on a QNAP NAS, and I'm using a denon avr-1713 as player.
This configuration works great, I only have a problem with the tracks order on multi-disc album, they are sorted in descending order:
CD1 has:
1 - track1 cd1
2 - track2 cd1
CD2 has:
1 - track 1 cd2
2 - track 2 cd2

this is what i get on my player:
track1 cd2
track2 cd2
track1 cd1
track2 cd1

How can i sort 'em in ascending order?
Thanks in advance!

Which player are you using?

Are the two CDs merged into a single album entry in the "<n> albums" list, or do they appear as two separate entries?

Are you seeing the incorrect order in the "<n> albums" list when browsing, or in the playlist when you queue the tracks for playing?

It would be helpful if you could post a screenshot of the incorrect display.

Hi simoncn,
thank you for ur reply.

I'm using directly my denon amplifier as control point since it has this functionality (denon avr-1713).

Yes the two CDs are merged into one album entry in the "<n> album view", but once i click on the album title the first song it playes is the first song of the second CD.

I think i cannot take a screenshot since i'm using the remote controller to select the music that i see from the amplifier display.

Since i have the default configuration of the minimserver, maybe it's just a denon issue.

Please check the DISCNUMBER tags in your tracks. If any of these are missing or incorrect, this could cause the problem you are seeing.

You were right! The discnumber is wrong:
CD1 Tag is correct:
metaflac --show-tag=DISCNUMBER 01\ Redbud\ Tree.flac
DISCNUMBER=1

CD2 Tag is not correct:
metaflac --show-tag=DISCNUMBER ../CD2/01\ Kingdom\ Of\ Gold.flac
DISCNUMBER=1

The funny thing is that my tags tool tells me it's correctly defined as
DISCNUMBER=2 on the second track:

I am using Media rage on Mac osX to edit these tags.

It sounds like it's time to get a new tagging program. I've heard that Metadatics is good, but I haven't tried it myself.
