Question Artist Sorting incorrectly
Hi All,

Been using MinimServer for a few years and it's been great, makes me glad Twonky broke on my old nas! Smile

After lots of tidying up crappy metadata I'm in a pretty good place, but one artist is annoying me: The Divine Comedy.

Due to the volume of content (almost everything twice, plus singles) I have things tagged as such:

Artist: The Diving Comedy
Album Artist: The Divine Comedy
Or; The Divine Comedy Reissues
Or: The Divine Comedy Singles, etc

Under Artist and AlbumArtist these sort as:
Divine Comedy Reissues
Divine Comedy Singles, etc
Divine Comedy

Under All Artists things show correctly:
The Divine Comedy then albums sorted chronoligically then:
Divine Comedy
Divine Comedy Reissues
Divine Comedy Singles, etc

Some other artists sorting wrongly was due to data mp3tag wasn't showing up such as multiple sortas entries that musicbee revealed and helped me get around but for the life of me i can't work out whats going on with these.

Below is the profile summary I'm using.
contentDir = /volume1/music
displayName = Music
excludePattern = *.mp4,*.m4v
indexTags = Artist, Album, Genre, All Artists, AlbumArtist,Date,Composer
listViewAlbums = 99999
mergeFolderAlbums = true
tagOptions = Album.sortTags={+Date,Album},Artist.ignore.sort={The },AlbumArtist.ignore.sort={The }

Thanks in advance for any help, i did a search of the forum for artist sort but the two entries that came up weren't relevant.

Edward
