[QUOTE="baou06, post: 54366, member: 19096"] Hello, (I looked in the Forum by could not find answer to question below) Is it possible in the "[color=orange]Videos[/color]" menu when activating "[color=orange]Sorting By Name[/color]" to have Directories and files [color=orange]sorted according to their names[/color], regardeless [color=orange]whether their are directories or files[/color], and NOT having FIRST directories and THEN files ? This should allow to have DVDs (directories) and movies (mpg or avi files for instance) to be correctly sorted. Lets take an example with 2 DVDs and 1 movie : DVD1 is a directory named "20060519 DVD1". DVD2 is a directory named "20060521 DVD2" Movie is a file named "20060520 Movie1.mpg" When activating "Sorting By Name" in the Videos Menu, following list is displayed : 20060519 DVD1 20060521 DVD2 20060520 Movie1.mpg (incorrect) :( instead of : 20060519 DVD1 20060520 Movie1.mpg 20060521 DVD2 (correct) :) Reason is that directories (DVDs) seem to be displayed [color=orange]before [/color]files (movies) in the list :shock: . Any recommendation to correct this ? Maybe some workaround could exist using the "Sort by date" feature or putting the files in directories, but this is not 100% satisfactory imho. I am using Media Portal RC4, April 18 version - Great software, btw :-) Thanks ! [/QUOTE]
