Wierd problem, listing wrong

Post by remmer »

Look at this:

For some reason these albums aren't listing in the correct order, or rather the songs aren't but I can't figure out why. Sorted by artist/album but the first song seems to list last, one is even listing song six as last. It's not for all albums in my library, just some.

Why is mediamonkey doing this?

Try sorting on Album alone. Then verify the Album Artist and Disc# fields. Those need to be the same for all tracks on the album.

Album sort sorts on Album > Album Artist > Disc# > Track#.

When I right click to choose fields Album is greyed out?

The strange thing is that is I search for the artist the songs show up in the right order but when I click on the artist to see all the albums by them the wrong order happens.

I've just checked the Disc # and that appears to be the problem, I've managed to fix it now. I would like to know how to sort just by album though, why it is greyed out for me.

Thanks for the help.

The Album column isn't available in the Album Art with Details view, but it is available in the Details view. Anyway you still need to fix the issue with Disc# and Album Artist if you sort on the Album column by itself.
