Title: Alphabetical Sort By Album
Post by: dspargo on May 31, 2020, 07:53:41 am

Long time Media Center user here and I apologize in advance for the basic question.

How do I sort albums alphabetically in the Artist view and make it stay that way (not a temp sort)?

Audio --> Artist --> Album (alphabetically)

For the all artist's view and the individual artist's view.

Thank you in advance!

I have achieved something similar by creating a number of custom tags - this is done via MP3Tag and creating an action. So you could create a tag called MyAlbumSort, say.

Then in MC, you can create a new Panes view that including this tag, together with any others you want, and it gets sorted by your custom tag.

There might be easier ways, but this would work.

I don't know what these exactly are
For the all artist's view and the individual artist's view.
so pictures would help...

In general: right click on view in question in the tree and select "Customize View..." then "Set rules for file display"
Modify Results ==> Sort By ==> Add ==> Album (a-z)

View will be sorted with these criterias the most meaningful being the the top one and so on
