Multi CD disks

Hi,

I've noticed that multi-album CDs don't appear to be played in the correct order. I've got a 2 CD album, ripped as MP3s. Each track has TPOS (part of set) set to either 1 or 2 (for disc 1 or 2) and an appropriate track number.

However, when I tried to play the album by browsing using the database, the playlist appeared to be playing

CD1 track 1
CD2 track 1
CD1 track 2
CD2 track 2

...

etc.

Is this a known limitation, or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

Andy

adhawkins:
Ah, just found this.

This is a couple of months old, so I guess it's not a 'simple' fix?

Mikerman:
I guess I inadvertently avoided this issue originally, when naming my multi-disc sets,

Dreamgirls (1)
Dreamgirls (2)

etc.

This also is helpful for me in identifying which of the discs in the set is playing, or which one I should select at a glance.

adhawkins:
Yes, but I don't particularly want to have to 'seperate' two discs of a multi-disc set. Ideally they should both have the same title, so that I can play the whole set in one operation.

I might have a delve through the code and see how difficult it would be to add this.

RotAtoR:
One way to get around this would be to prepend the disc number to the track numbers in the tags.

disc 1 track 01 -> track 101
disc 1 track 02 -> track 102
disc 2 track 01 -> track 201
...

It may not be the best way, but it should work.
