Sorting albums by date

(1/12) > >>

joelha:
I'm a little embarrassed to be asking this question but I just can't seem to get this worked out on my own.

At times, I want to sort my albums by date modified.

Here's the script that I'm using: [Media Type]=[Audio] ~sort=[Date Modified]

But all I end up with is an alphabetical listing of my albums.

I want my albums sorted first by date modified, then by artist, and then by album.

What am I missing?

Thanks to anyone who tries to help me with this.

Joel

MrC:
In what location do you want the sorting?

  - the File list (typically at the bottom of the screen)
  - within Groups in the File list
  - a pane in a panes view
  - the order of items in a Category view?

joelha:
Wow,

Was that reply ever fast.

I'd love groups within a file list (I hope I'm answering this correctly).

Thanks very much.

Joel

MrC:
You can use the pull down at the upper left of the File's list, and in the Group By, select Album.  Album has a special meaning when used as a group header - it is defined as [Album] by [Artist]   [Date] and does sorting based on Date.

Otherwise, you can use the Year - Album method, as described here:

Thanks a lot for another quick reply.

Will this method also allow (and I realize I should have mentioned this in my original post) me to have the Date category in JRemote?

If you it will, I'll take some time to work with your suggestions.

Thanks again.

Joel
