My screengrabs show that a disc 2 is BEFORE disc 1 which is clearly incorrect. I would like albums sorted by artist, then when you get to various artists in that view, they should be sorted by album name. like you might store on a real life cd shelf

Hmmm... Ie you have:
Album1 with AlbumArtist - VA and with Artists - A1 A2...
And you want go to music and see:
A1 -> Album1 -> Tracks from Album1 for A1
A2 -> Album1 -> Tracks from Album1 for A2
...

yes.

ie

album view must be used as this uses the folder.jpg images.

then sort by artist

then sort by album name within the artist

all on the same cover flow view.

this should give any albums called disc 1 BEFORE disc 2

eg when I scroll across to various artists I would see: Now 1 disc1, now 1 disc 2, now 2 disc 1, now 2 disc 2 etc

at the moment my now collection is in a random order

see attached correct position.....
