Performer W/Instruments Sort - aspaceintime - 23-11-2025 15:04
I have been updating tags in my library. I want to be able to sort the Performer tag alphabetically. I have included my current setup in the attached files.
My Performer:Perform W Instruments index is what I'd like sorted by last name.
I can get a partial result using the performer_name_sort: Performer Sort (A-Z) index, which sorts performers by last name, but I lose the instruments.
Is it possible to sort by last name & include the instruments? Any help would be great.
Thanks

If you're looking to sort performer by performer_name_sort have you tried:
Code:
tagValue: performer.value.sort={performer_name_sort}RE: Performer W/Instruments Sort - aspaceintime - 16-12-2025 14:34

I have determined the issue and made the correct tweak. Thanks for your info...
