[QUOTE="Lehmden, post: 1227702, member: 109222"] Hi. This depends on the grabbing tool. The pure "sorttitle" field did not exist in any online sources, that's right. But all tools incl. MP2 are generating something from "Collection" or "Name" as value for the sorttitle field. MKV-Buddy also use the year and month of the first release for the sorttitle field. As far as I know it is the only tool that does so. This is useful if more than one movie of a collection is released in the same year, e.g. the "Barbie" movies for my nice, there are some years with 4 movie releases... An example from "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2": [CODE=XML]<sorttitle>Guardians of the Galaxy Filmreihe2017-04</sorttitle>[/CODE] The name of the movieset as grabbed from TMDB (in German) is "Guardians of the Galaxy Filmreihe" and the movie is released in April 2017... The same field for the first part looks like: [CODE=XML]<sorttitle>Guardians of the Galaxy Filmreihe2014-07</sorttitle>[/CODE] So it should be clear that those movies are sorted properly... I would suggest to add something very similar to the MP2 importer as this is proofed to be working good... By the way, we definitely need to overwork the quick filtering (pressing "E" on keyboard sets the focus to the first entry staring with "E") in GUI. If you are sorting by sorttitle the quick filter still filters by title, so the results are unusable... At least one example I can give you that did not work with the "Moviename (Year)" naming scheme... If you have a movie "Thor (2011)" you may expect and get the Marvel blockbuster. But there also is an animated movie "Thor" from 2011 that is a completely different thing... If you are using the tt-number then this is no issue (Marvel- Thor = tt0800369, Anime Thor = tt1667903) [/QUOTE]
