hello, i like the "album covers" view, but i cannot find a way to decide the order inside the popup panel with the tracks
From this screenshot you can see that it uses "title" for the order, but I'd like to use "filename" instead, yet I cannot find a way.

I know I can workaround by

- adding the track number to the tags, but I have too many albums with this problem

- use this option, but it's uglier than the popup panel


- use the "albums and tracks", where i can decide the sorting not only of the albums but also of the tracks, but it's a different view, and i like the "albums" view better


thanks

if the track number is missing, MB only supports sorting by track title

If the track numbers are in the file names, you can do this very easily by using the Infer and update tags from filenames command under auto-tag by track.
