Database alpha ignore.
danny_pav:
so if the tag is not present, it will use the original? so then this feature could be added and no one will be forced to retag their library? that's good
and then if you wanted to take advantage of this, there are (at least) 2 apps which can do the tagging? that's good, too.
so, has this been officially entered as an issue? is there a tracking #?
thx - dan

errr... see pixelma's post above, she links to the only actual attempt to do this. AFAIK, the rest of the 'track sorting' tasks in the tracker are just feature requests ;)
SinthrillMeadear:
another simple way to have rockbox overlook "the", is to remove them. i kinda figured that out one day, that if a word isn't there, the database can't sort it. :)
yapper:
Instead of deleting 'The' it could be moved, e.g. 'Beatles, The'.
Or come to terms with the fact that the band decided to name themselves 'The xxx', and therefore they really do have a name beginning with 'T' ;)
Llorean:
That's my personal position on it. You always gotta scroll to somewhere, and I actually think it looks worse seeing a whole bunch of Bs intermixed with occasional Ts on the left side of the screen when a so called "smart" sorting algorithm is in place.
But the sort tags, when they're finished, will allow for a solution that's pretty darn flexible too. And fixes more problems than just ignoring "The" anyway.
