Dragging folders into Media Center adds items in wrong order.
« on: August 17, 2018, 12:18:42 pm »

I had some media that I specifically wanted to add manually to Media Center due to it requiring a lot of manual tag editing, rather than letting auto-import handle it, and have noticed that it doesn't seem to sort tracks in the right order.

Many times it's adding tracks like this:
    1
    10
    11
    12
    2
    3
    4
    etc.

Enabling shell integration might be the answer, probably wrong but worth a try.

It isn't MC causing the problem, that happens if you drag a folder of songs into vlc.
Or Media Player. Not helpful, sorry, but wanted you to know you are not alone.
Dragging between windows in MC works, but from Explorer it always starts a few down and then puts those missed at the end.
It pays to get your music imported and then use MC only, but of course you have new music you want to try.
I can't imagine why it works that way. Maybe some brainiac (TM) here has an answer.

try highlighting from the bottom to the top and drag the top one....if dragging a folder, highlight from top to bottom then drag the folder.
