Album-Art - Sorting

hi @ all.

well, new release just tested and it still keeps moving in the right direction - thanks to the authors for that fine work.

my "problem" is that there is no multiple sorting option for the new album art window - which is, as a standard, always sorted by artist and then by album(name) which is understandable, but in fact looks kind of stupid if you got a discography of an artist and the covers are like mixed up instead of a more logical chronological order.

what I mean is simply sorting FIRST by column1=artist and THEN by column2=year or what so ever - like multiple sorting - wouldn't that be much more comfortable?

is there any way to change that somehow or do I have to wait for that feature?

maybe you could change the standard to "Artist - Year - Album name", instead of currently "Artist - Album - Year".

thanks in advance, paul

hi @ all,

sorry, but am I too strange with my wish or why isn't there any reply yet?
it might feel a little academic to like the option of ordering files in different ways but come on doesn't it bother you sometimes a little?

what do you guys think out there?

thanks, Paul

* Improved: [ml_local] Album column sorting order logic

it is already implemented, but it does'nt work for me

@mynameisnobody

thx for reply, so I don't feel that lonesome...
well, after testing the new 5.51 version I couldn't find improvements concerning my suggestion.

@mods and developers

what are these improvements supposed to be:
!* Improved: [ml_local] Album column sorting order logic"
where could I find more explanation about this?

thx in advance, paul

i think it refers to the sorting logic of a single column - the album column.

If you can hear yourself singing...the music ain't loud enough!
