Bug ID: 449885
Summary: Sorting of tracks within album in track listing does
not respect track number; appears random.
Product: Elisa
Version: 21.12.2
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: matthieu_gall...@yahoo.fr
Reporter: fake.n...@posteo.net
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When browsing by track in the listing "tracks", though artists and albums will
sort alphabetically, the track listing within an album is random. It does not
respect the track number information present in the track metadata, nor is the
ordering alphabetical, nor by length, etc. As far as I can tell the sorting is
entirely random within the album; no metadata I can locate corresponds to the
ordering observed.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select "Tracks" from the library sidebar
2. Sort by Artist
3. Find an album, and observe its track ordering.
OBSERVED RESULT
To give an example of one album, take Paegan Terrorism Tactics by Acid Bath
(first album in my library LOL)
Relative to its true track ordering (I.E, 1, 2, 3, 4 etc), the tracks are
listed in order:
11, 2, 5. 8. 7, 12, 1, 4, 6, 9, 3
If this were alphabetical the order would be
9,2,11,4,3,5,10,7,12,6,1,8
If this were by length, one would instead see
11,7,2,3,1,8,5,4,9,10,12,6
And so on.
Every single album I have is in a similar disarray.
EXPECTED RESULT
Sort by artist should list tracks by artist, alphabetically, then by album,
alphabetically (or chronologically, but I'm not picky), and then, within the
album, the tracks should be ordered by their track listing in their metadata.
