Title: [SOLVED] -- JRemote 3.10 – TV Shows Not in Correct Order
Post by: User99 on April 27, 2015, 03:44:23 am

My apologies if my concern has been discussed.

I am currently using JRemote 3.10 and noticed all my TV Shows are not displayed in proper order.  TV shows are properly compartmentalized by TV series title, but individual shows are randomly listed within each TV series listing.

Additionally, my remote displays cover art for each TV series but not for individual seasons within each TV series.

Is it possible to display all TV show listings in order by season and then by episode number?  Is it also possible to group seasons within each TV series and display cover art for such seasons (similar to Theater View in MC)?

Thanks

Yes, but you have to add sortings to the Media Network view you've defined inside MC's options.  Mine looks like this:

The search used above is:

Code: [Select]

[Offline]="0" [Media Sub Type]=[TV Show] -[Genre]=[Documentary],[Kids],[News],[Game Show],[Instructional] ~sort=[Series],[Season],[Episode],[Name]
The [Offline]="0" part you don't need, and you might not want to exclude some Genres like I do (those show types have their own separate Views on my system) but you do need to add explicit sorting order.  If not specified explicitly, all searches in MC return random sort order.

Thanks for the very helpful reply.  Your suggestions worked perfectly!

Great! (I knew it would.)

Thanks for letting us know, though!

Did you figure out adding the Season category to add the Season groupings?
