[1714] Can't able to sort by Disc #

Post by monkeyfan1970 »

Hello,

I notice a issue with MM. MM can't able to remember to sort by "Disc #". I have a "Disc #" column and "Track #". Even though I click the "Disc #" column to sort it, if I restart MM, it will always defaults back to sort by "Track #".

Will it be possible to fix this issue.

Thanks.

Although I am not sure why you want you view sorted by Disc# .. i just tried this and it appeared to work correctly and remember after shutdown/restart. Tested on 1714

Nope it does not work for me. Everytime i restart MM, it always defaults to sort by "Track #". I can't able to make MM remember sort by "Disc #".

Does it fail to remember any other sort (indicating it isn't closing properly)?

After further test, actually MM fail to remember any sort. It always defaults back to "Title ". I am using Artist Tree.

Then it's either not saving the sort or your in a dependent node (infers settings from a Collection) and I'm not sure if all can change the parent Collections settings.

I am looking at the "Collection Option", there is no way to set a column as default sort.

If you sort in the Collection I believe this sort is then also set for any Collections/Playlists that inherit from that Collection. I may be mistaken though. I've not noticed any sorting issues here.

Since the devs are going to fix this problem. Could anyone tell me in which line/section of the "MediaMonkey.ini" file can I change the "sort variable"?

Thank you.

It's not in the .ini, its in the database.

Sort orders of columns are stored in Windows registry.

Run regedit and go to HKCU/Software/MediaMonkey/Interface/V4/

That registry data is pretty opaque. I don't have a clue what I'd change there.

You can delete or temporarily rename the key HKCU/Software/MediaMonkey/Interface/V4/ , MediaMonkey will start in the default UI layout then.
I also can't replicate your issue so you will at least verify that the registry path is writable (as should be) for MM.

I have tried this. But still no luck. It always defaults back to "Title ".
