superluig164 Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Currently, the sort by artist option sorts by artist > album > title. I would like options to choose between artist > title and artist > album > track #. I think both are better than trying to lump them into one option, as I imagine people who like sorting by artist > album also prefer track numbers, whereas people who like sorting by artist > title want to prioritize individual tracks. Perhaps all 3 could be made available as options, if you so choose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 A user-definable Category system is another long-standing request, allowing the user to create their own intricate sorting orders in addition to the supplied ones, which would allow exactly what you are asking.

superluig164 Posted January 18, 2022 Author Share Posted January 18, 2022 While that sounds awesome, I imagine that will take a bit longer to implement than what I'm asking for, which I think would be a good interim solution, as there are a lot of options already. Additionally, I think it should still be one of the default options alongside a custom setup, since it's a pretty common distinction to make.

andrewilley Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 That would be up to Max. Personally, I've always felt a fully customisable system is a better long-term solution rather than spending time adding various ad hoc add-ons upon existing modes, especially as there are quite a few previous requests for other category sorting modes already (e.g. Artists albums to be sorted by Year first, and then by Title - or for Year sorting to include yyyy-mm-dd tags when present).

superluig164 Posted January 18, 2022 Author Share Posted January 18, 2022 Yeah yeah absolutely, I am not saying we shouldn't get a modular system - I'm just saying I don't expect it super soon, and I think it would be easier for max to drop in a couple extra presets while he works on the custom thing.
