Tracks playing in Alphabetical order and not Track Order
« on: June 25, 2020, 10:46:37 AM »
I just bought a FiiO M3K and put Rockbox on it straight away as I love Rockbox on my other player.

Problem is that when I use the database album tracks are being displayed in alphabetical order and not track order.

I have checked the meta data and the files have the correct track information and are named:

1 Track Name
2 Track Name
3 Track Name

So it isn't even sorting in file order, it is sorting alphabetically based on the track name in the ID3 tags.

I have checked in General Settings>Database>File View>Sort Files

But the options there are Date, Newest Date, Type.

I checked out the FAQs and it says the default is to play by track order, so I don't understand why it is defaulting to alphabetical based on tht etitle in the ID3 tags.

Any help much appreciated, as I hate listening to albums in the wrong order. It messes with my brain :-)

That's strange. Does it also happen if you to Database > 'Artist Album' > 'Artist name' > 'Album name' ?

For me 'File View' is in 'General Settings' not 'General Settings > Database' menu.
