Sort tracks by album?

[Mog]

So I've been using Rockbox on my Sansa e250 for some time now and I love it. But there's just one thing I find annoying and miss from the official firmware. That is sorting all tracks by album.

If I go to Database>Albums>All tracks it sorts my tracks something like this

01 - AAA (Album 1)
01 - AAB (Album 3)
01 - AAC (Album 2)
02 - EEE (Album 3)
02 - HHH (Album 1)
02 - QQQ (Album 2)

and so on, it just grabs all tracks and alphabetizes them while the official firmware has an option to sort tracks like this

01 - AAA (Album 1)
02 - HHH (Album 1)
01 - AAC (Album 2)
02 - QQQ (Album 2)
01 - AAB (Album 3)
02 - EEE (Album 3)

so am I missing some hidden secret option or something because I couldn't find anything relevant to this using Google

Also all tracks are properly tagged so I really don't see where the problem is

What you're missing is the the sorting and searching in Rockbox is entirely customisable. You can write your own tagnavi file which sorts however you like.

This? Yeah I've seen this, but it's not exactly written "for dummies". Any simpler guide to creating a working tagnavi_custom.config?

Anyone's welcome to correct me, but I don't believe there is...no.

This guide *is* fairly simple, but I guess it could seem daunting to some.
Use that link as a reference, but if you get stuck it may be better to pop into #rockbox on IRC and see if a helpful dev/user can offer you a "blow-by-blow" description on how to achieve your desired effect.

It's like riding a bike, it seems impossible at first, but once you learn how...well, you get the picture.

Well I still don't get it no matter how many times I go through it, it just leaves me more confused.
