Correct Display Of Music File Order

[AnnieBody]

I use MinimServer with StreamMagic.
My library starts and I open 'Folder View'.
From there I open a category 'Albums'.
If I open an album the tracks are displayed in track number order.
If I open a different album the tracks are displayed in an apparently random order.
Both folders have the file track numbers starting from 01 to nnn.

I then open another category 'A'.
None of these files have track numbers as they are singles.
All single categories display randomly.

What do I need to set in order to get all albums listed in track number order and all singles listed by 'artist - track'?

Regards

You can use .sortTags to control the order of items within folder view.

This may work:

Code:

tagOptions: folder.sortTags={tracknumber, artist, title}

To get tracks in an album sorted correctly, the TrackNumber tag needs to be present and correct in every file. Having a filename of "01 My track name" is not sufficient for MinimServer to know that this is track number 1.

[AnnieBody]

All my tracks have the tags set and derive the filename from the tags.

The above suggestion has solved the randomness of all the folder contents including those that did not previously display in the correct track order. So thanks to simbun for that reply.

The default sort order without folder.sortTags is {album, tracknumber, title}. I am not sure why tracks from an album would appear in correct track number order with {tracknumber, artist, title} but not with {album, tracknumber, title}.
