Song in alphabetical order

Server Version#: 1.13.9.5456
Player Version#: Web client 3.72.2

Most of my music albums are shown in clients in Track # order, which is what I want. A number of my albums show the songs in alphabetical order. When I look at the mp3 tags, all looks good. Does anyone know what causes this?

Thanks.

May I see a screenshot of the meta tags of one track as an example?

The track number must be a simple integer number. There must be no letters or other characters in there. (i.e. vinyl “numbering” A1 B1 etc. is not supported)

Which file format is used?

Hi - sorry for the delay. Here are some screen grabs.

  1. Windows explorer
  2. mp3tag program
  3. Plex web player

Thanks.

Aha! These files are no mp3 but wma files. There have been reports of some trouble to read meta tags from wma files.

Were these meta tags already in the files when you added them into Plex?
If not, try the Plex Dance with the whole album.
(with music, you can omit step 4 of the dance)

If you still have the original CD, I recommend you to rip them again but this time to use the mp3 or the aac file format. Because these are much better supported.
