Questions / Re: Sorting album tracks by track artist ?

« on: July 11, 2020, 01:01:36 PM »

Sorry for the time before finally answering.

Thank you for your suggestion but it doesn't helps or solve anything. I don't want to use the Album & Tracks view at first, and secondly all the tracks in these albums are different artists. Which is the main reason why I wanted to sort them by artist name...

I can live with it, I thought there was a simple way to sort tracks in an album.
I leave the topic open in case someone wants to add something, but you can close it as you want I guess if needed, to clear space, idk.

You could use Album & Tracks view in detailed list mode, which will allow whatever sorting you want.

Could you explain that a little more please?
I wanted to sort 7 of my albums into my collection, not creating a playlist for them.

Thank you for your suggestion, but I thought there was a simple option to simply sort by artist names automatically, but if we just can't I can live with this!  

Setting a number for each song would mean adding a new number every time I download a song (which I don't really mind). But if the song I add is number 45 on 90 songs, I will have to change the number for each songs after the number 45 so there are no duplicates. If i don't there will be two songs with number 45.
And I often download many songs at the same time.

I don't know if what I say is clear enough, but it will be a pain in the ass to change the numbers every time I download a song.

Thanks again sir for your time and help! Also the quickness of your answers. I appreciate that.

Well thank you again for your time and answers!
I really thought there was a way to simply sort files differently. I really feel like I already seen something like that...

Anyway I will deal with it... Thank you again, and I will keep this updated if I ever find a solution.

Yes, that was the case already in the first screenshot too. I did remove all track numbers for these 7 albums because they are mostly singles so the tracks numbers are all "1". I disabled it to sort by alphabetical order.

First, thank you a lot!

And sadly no, I already tried this but it creates a different group for every artist and I would like to not create these extra groups for one song each. Also the files are still sorted in the alphabetical order for track names.
But we may be on the good way!

Questions / Sorting album tracks by track artist ?

Hello dear MusicBee community, this is my first question.

I would like to sort the tracks of 7 albums by artist name. Does anyone knows how to help me?
I tried almost everything I could. My tracks are sorted by alphabetical order, I want an alphabetical order for artist names. It should be for instance : Alborosie's songs in first, Bob Marley's songs in second, CaliP's songs in third, etc.

Thanks in advance to the ones who will try to help, here is a screenshot of my tracks sorted by track names. I hope I explained my problem well enough.
