Can anyone advise how to get Albums or other lists e.g. Artists for music files stored in the X12’s Music DB to be displayed in alphabetical order?
If I look at the collection stored on my NAS via the “Browser” the titles are displayed alphabetically, whichever category (Album, Artist, Genre, etc) is selected, which is what I would expect. But if I import them into the Music DB on the X12, the lists are no longer ordered. The X12 appears to display Albums in order the folders are stored the hard disk, with the most recent additions are appended to the end of the list. Artists etc are equally jumbled, which is pretty hopeless if one has a largish collection - thanks

In Setup, select 'Music DB' then 'Display mode' choose anoter option other than 'album' e.g. 'Artist/Album' this will group all albums by the same artist together, or try some of the other options If you need more detail try www.cocktailaudio.co.uk, forum and use search option

Thanks Frenchjaguar, Helpful suggestions, I can see that grouping them does help although it does not appear to put them in alphabetical order.

Ah - got you! for some reason the titles in a group are not ordered but the lists they contain are. Thanks again AndyM
