Dynamic playlist sort order
« on: October 14, 2009, 07:26:03 AM »
Hello all.

I'm wondered why playlists created from database (e.g. added from 'Album Artist' menu item) are ordered by track name. Is it possible to sort them by Artist/Album/Track# instead? How can I accomplish that?

They're ordered by whatever the order shown on the database page was. Edit tagnavi.config to change the database's categorisation and sorting.

The tagnavi syntax is not very well documented at present; searching the forum is probably your best bet.
