Sort Order within Silverjuke

[essy]

Hi.

First of all, keep up the good work. This is a top product. I do however have a query...

I have a collection of compilation CDs stored in the following format:
..CD CompilationsAlbum Name (<Disk Nr>)<Disk Nr>-<Track Nr> Title

an example being:
F:MusicCD CompilationsRaveology (Disc 1)1-01 Pacific State.m4a
...
F:MusicCD CompilationsRaveology (Disc 1)1-23 Searchin For My Rizla.m4a
F:MusicCD CompilationsRaveology (Disc 2)2-01 Evapr-8.m4a
...
F:MusicCD CompilationsRaveology (Disc 2)2-23 Injected With A Poison.m4a

When I try and combine these tracks to a single album, the track sort order appears as 1-01, 2-01, 1-02, 2-02 etc, whereas I require 1-01, 1-02 ... 1-23, 2-01 etc without displaying the disk or track number, only the title.

Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks.

Hello essy,

you can try to use the with the Path and filename as source and sth. like <DiskNr(1)>-<Nr(2)> for the mask should do the job. The function gives you a good preview, so that you can check the result before updating the database.

You should do this after you've read the source CD and mark the CD for no further updates by disabling "Include folder to the update process" at "Settings/My music library/Options".

Excellent, although not entirely as explained or expected...

The solution was to amend the "path and file pattern for track info" under "Settings/My music library/Options", as I only want to amend the display of the tracks within Silverjuke, and not the ID3 or physical filename details.

Incidentally, when I tried your suggestion, I got an error stating it couldn't write the ID3 data as it was missing for the given tracks. However when I check the tracks in iTunes, the ID3 data is indeed there. Whilst this doesnt concern me as I only use Silverjuke for playing, not editing, I though I'd let you know.

Thanks again for the speedy response.

The "Settings/My music library/Options" Path and file pattern is rather stupid when trying to find out the track and disk numbers - and has failed for your example.

For these cases, the way described above should be preferred - maybe I should have mentioned to disable the Option "Write (ID3-)tags" in the confirmation dialog, but I thought, this should not work on a CD-ROM at all ...

However, thank you for your report and feel free to contact us again if you encounter further problems.

Best regards,
Your Silverjuke Team
