Album Tracks Sorting Alphabetically? - MrDJP - 20-10-2026 04:22

I recently purchased a Matrix Audio NT-1 streamer, I was having problems getting it to work with my previous UPnP, server Asset installed on my QNAP NAS drive & saw the recommended UpnP server is Minimserver, so I downloaded the free version to give it a try. It synchronizes with my library without issue but I see if I browse by artist, their albums are sorted alphabetically & then when you select an album, they too are sorted alphabetically instead of track #. I don't believe this is normal even with the free version? All my files are FLAC, ripped with I believe the default dBpoweramp tag defaults. When I check the IDtags I think they are good, (sample attached) any help?

Are you using the MA remote app?
Can you try an
universal app like mConnect and find out the results are the same?

I have been using MinimServer for a very long time, and the only issues I’ve encountered with track sorting occurred when track number metadata was missing or incorrect. I therefore assume that MinimServer sends the data sorted strictly by track number.
For this reason, I also recommend trying a different control app to see if the "MA Remote" app is the cause of the alphabetical sorting. It’s possible that this can be configured within that app?

Long time user to (2012).
In fact I do have the same album, ripped using dBpoweramp.
I am a bit surprised the track titles do not correspond.
Pretty sure your controlpoint causes the issue.

Thanks for the reply's, yes this is with the MA Remote app. I will try a universal app & see if that makes a difference. I did look through the app & don't see any option to change how tracks are sorted.

Thought I would follow up on this & confirm it was a control app issue, which Matrix Audio has already sorted out. Thanks for the help.

I'm glad there's a solution.
