Sorting with 'The'
« on: October 22, 2003, 04:26:54 am »
It seems that MC9 does not sort artists in the same way as the iPod...  For example, 'The Beatles' is stored with all other bands starting with 'The', instead of with all other 'B's.  Not annoying by itself, but it is awkward that the 2 systems work differently!

Any ideas much appreciated!

Cheers,

Mark.

Kingsparta has a solution at spartasoft.com.
I've never tried it though - but everything else he makes works troubleless.

Also in MediaCenter: Library Tools->Clean File Properties
There you can rename any fields for example "The Beatles" to "Beatles, The"

Beware - only apply the changes to the artist field.  Some have inadvertently changed track names using this and it's not easy to rectify afterwards.
