Welcome to the Rockbox Technical Forums!
Using the three stort tags would solve several problems at once, in a 100% multilingual way, without obvious negative side effects.
I'm hardly an expert on tagging.
Why do you suggest doing it in such a huge hack of a way? Sorting without articles by default?
From what I can gather, it seems *we* should implement a crappy solution in our software
because either :a) He can't find a tagging program that does the sort / display stufforb) He can't be bothered to learn about one that does
It should be easy enough to write a script in foobar2000 to create the TSOP tags for you (foreign languages not withstanding). Is the extra effort your only beef?
lay off beating up the Rockbox team because they don't want to do it your way.
It's not the right way to solve the problem.The proper solution is this:There are in many tagging formats two tags each for Title, Artist, and Album. One for display, and one for use in sorting. If you want The to be ignored, for the sorting tag, you put "Blah, The" instead of "The Blah" (which you use for the display tag).So a correct solution would be for someone to make a patch to use all of the tags effectively, rather than for it to intentionaly ignore a string of characters.
