Hello!

Is anyone else interested in sorting within collections?

For example, I just ripped the James Bond Collection. I would love to be to sort by year within the James Bond Collection but not change the sorting on the main Movie List.

If there is a way to do this, I’m utterly confused on where this is, but if it is not I think it would be a very cool feature.

YES!

Please implement sorting options within a Collection that has Zero effect on the selected Library sort option. (ie. Alpha up/down is my top priority). Currently everything is display by Year descending with ZERO option for sorting.

Thanks!

Edit the collection and you can change the order to alpha.
