[solved] ncmpcpp - album sort?

Have recently set up a headless server for my multimedia needs. Since I control it via ssh I had to install a console music player and have decided on mpd/ncmpcpp. One thing that bugs me is that the Media Library sorts with Artist as the first criteria. Even in the 2-column view where Album takes precedence, it is still Album (sorted by artist), which is kind of silly since I can get that already in the 3 column view. And so it is difficult to access my albums which are compilations of many artists. Is there any way I can have "Album" and see all the songs in that album in the next column?
Or failing which are there any other console players I can use?

Thats what the albumartist tag is for. And ncmpcpp supports this one just fine. just add tag "albumartist = Soundtrack" (for example) on those albums.
to make ncmpcpp sort media library using this tag, hit ` and then A for albumartist.
**edit** also make sure, to add the albumartist tag to the supported ones in mpd.conf

How do I print a list albums sorted by artist

iTunes 12.1.2.27 Windows 7 SP 1 (64 bit)
I would like to generate a list of albums in my library sorted by artist. This used to work fine before I upgraded to iTunes 12 last fall by using File > Print > Album listing / Theme: List of albums.
Since the iTunes 12 upgrade the list is generated sorted by album title and not by artist. I have my View options set to Albums - Sort by Artist them by Title.
Even though the theme clearly states sorted by artist, it generated a list sorted by album title. How do I fix this so that it generates what the theme description states?
Thanks for your help and insight in restoring the old print behavior.

Hi ed,
I am on iTunes 12.1.2.27 ... but what I get is albums sorted by title in both the preview and the output file. This behavior has been consistent since I upgraded to iTunes 12 ... with iTunes 11 it did work like what you are seeing. I do think it is some sort of bug ... iTunes 12 was not the smoothest software upgrade I have see. I did run into a lot of lock-ups and trashing of album art in the 12,0 releases but this latest release (12.1.2.27) seems to be have taken care of most of those issues.
I might look into doing a complete removal of iTunes and then try a new clean reinstall but I was hoping that maybe there was some setting, or config file parameter, that might fix this..
Thanks for your response.

[iOS][Your Music] Album sort by artist is out of order

After the 3.4.0.684 update for IOS, the album sort by artist is out of order. It looks like the sort is only factoring in the first letter in the sort as seen below. Can the old sort methodology be put back in.

Album sort order missing

I want to use 'Recently Added' in album view while hiding all rated albums.
I do not understand why the new 'album' sort order is restricted to only a few fields, while the 'songs' sort order doesn't have the two-level; sorting that the album sort order has. Both of these views have half the functionality I want.

Figured it out. I added "Various Artists" in the Album Artist field for every track and it then sorted them all together.

"iPod" album sorting

Has anyone figured out how to sort albums chronologically by "Artist" in an iPod. I tried sorting albums in iTunes which works great, but as soon as you put the artist in your iPod it defaults that artist's albums back to alphabetical. I know that the software in the iPod is not iTunes, but it seems that if the artist sort tag carries over then the album sort tag should as well.

I put the year in brackets at the beginning of the album title and number the songs on all my music - Goes back to when I had a Zen that wouldn't even play the album in order. This keeps everything in chronological order, but kind of screws me when it comes to using things like fetch album art or lyrics.
If chronological is more important to you (like it is to me), you might try this. Besides, I'm also picky about added the correctly sized artwork.

Album sort processing made easy...... please???

How can I have my albums sort like when the "songs" tab is selected i.e.( all together) .... under the albums tab all my albums are divided into each song on that album......... = A mess. If all my albums are neatly stacked under songs how can I copy that form to "Albums"...... hope you ge my drift?
I dont have the time to check out every album and song to have all same info so that they all "collect" together?
Save me some late nights please

Looks like a good enhancement to me.

Album sorting problem?

I have an iPod nano, believe it's first generation, that I got in June 2006. It's always worked fine, but recently I've been having a problem with album sorting. I prefer not to sort my songs into albums at all, but a few do have albums listed. But now when I look up music by artist, rather than displaying "all" and have the album(s) listed below, it automatically goes to the album.
For example, I had one Taylor Swift song with an album listed, and all her other songs without. When I go to her name, it automatically goes to that one song, and I can't see the others without albums. THe other songs can still be found under "songs" on my ipod. When I delete the album, it's fixed, but I really don't want to do that. Anyone know how to fix this?

Once you add a second album name for that artist even for a single song, ALL the rest of the songs should now show up under that artist, even those without album names.

The new update limits album sorts to album by artist year and is too limiting. How do I get the standard sort by album alone

The new update limits album sorts to album by artist year and is too limiting. How do I get the standard sort by album alone?

Click the heading of the Album column to cycle between Album, Album by Artist and Album By Artist/Year.

Album sort order PSE11 - is it by design ?

When experimenting with the sort order of albums in PSE11, I was surprised to see that in some albums, changing the sort order from 'oldest' to 'newest' did not produce any effect.
The reason of this probably lies in the menu /preferences/general :
If you have only pictures taken the same day, the above setting will still show 'oldest first' even you choose 'newest first' for album order.
I believe that the most used order is 'album order' and that the 'newest first' is very rare.
I can understand the option to browse 'oldest first within each day' when in 'newest first' in thumbnail view.
However, I wonder if that option makes sense to sort an album ?
Was it by design ?
If it were me...
I would not use that preference for an album,
and...
I would add the option to sort by filename and caption.

Figured it out. I added "Various Artists" in the Album Artist field for every track and it then sorted them all together.

Cover flow and album sort issues

I just got a 80GB iPod classic for Christmas and I have noticed some annoying differences between iTunes cover flow and iPod cover flow:
1. In iTunes cover flow, when you have songs with "Unknown Album", they clutter up the cover flow for each artist. In iPod cover flow, they are sent to the back of the cover flow in a nice little "Various Artists" cover. I like how this works on the iPod better.
2. iTunes cover flow sorts by album artist, so you don't see a separate album for each non-album artist song.
For example: If I set my album artist for the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack to "Saturday Night Fever" (don't ask why, this is how i like it sorted) then I will only see one "Saturday Night Fever" rather than one for Bee Gees, one for Kool & the Gang, etc.
iPod cover flow sorts by artist, so you see a separate album for each non-album artist song. I like the way this works in iTunes better.
3. When sorting by "Album by Year" in iTunes, syncing the iPod doesn't seem to follow the same sorting. Albums are still sorted on the iPod alphabetically. I want them to sort by year on my iPod.
So I would appreciate it if someone could help me with all 3 of these issues. As you can see, sometimes iTunes is better for me, sometimes iPod is better for me.

3. Playlists should be sorted in the same way as they are in iTunes. The Cover Flow order is fixed.
This is not the case, at least not with iTunes 7.5.0.20 and my 80GB Classic running 1.0.3 on it (current version as of this writing). In iTunes, under LIBRARY, I select Music, and I have my music sorted via *Album by Year*. This works perfectly in iTunes. I'll use my Soundgarden library as an example, as it shows the problem nicely.
*_iTunes order_:*
Ultramega OK
Louder Than Love
Screaming Life/Fopp
Badmotorfinger
Superunknown
Songs From The Superunknown
Down on the Upside
A-Sides
That's ordered by date and is perfect. +Ultramega OK+ was released way back in 1988, while A-Sides was released nearly 10 years later in 1997. In Cover Flow View it works great. However, in the iPod it's sorted alphabetically, which is completely wrong:
*_iPod Classic_:*
A-Sides
Badmotorfinger
Down on the Upside
Louder Than Love
Screaming Life/Fopp
Songs From The Superunknown
Superunknown
Ultramega OK
This is totally wrong. And I haven't yet found a way to force it.
Apple, please, this shouldn't be that difficult.

Is it possible to bypass the Album sorting sequence...

Need to list alphabetically all selections of a given artist without grouping by album...
I.e., 5 albums by a given artist with a combined alpha listing of all selections within the 5...not affected by album name...

Hmmm not sure how you could create a smart playlist that included all artists and then put their songs alphabetically within the artist grouping. You can either alphabetize by artist or by song name, but not really both.
To include all the artists (or anything in a playlist you want to include all of) you can do that by making a negative rule that is true for all of them. For example, if you want all the artists, then simply create a rule like "All Artists that are not AAAAAAAA" which will be all of them (except of course if you actually have an artist called AAAAAAAA").
But I think you can build a playlist of what you want in a normal (not-smart) play list and build it up manually. Create your final playlist first, which starts empty. Now click on the Name column in your library to sort the library by song names. Open the browser and use the search box and type in the first artist you want to put in the playlist. Say U2. Select U2 when the Artist browser list narrows down and you see it. Now all the songs shown below are just U2 songs in song order. Select All and drag and drop those into your playlist. Repeat for the next artist, select all, drag and drop into the playlist.
I don't have iTunes in front of me at the moment, but I think that should load the playlist up the way you want, all songs grouped by artist and the song within the artist subsection in alphabetical order.

Album 'sort by name'

I just purchased Elements 10 and am disappointed that it is not possible to 'sort by name' in the Album. This is a basic fundamental option in all OS so why not in Elements 10?
John

Albums will usually respect file names (alphabetical order) if you change from date sort.
You can also drag to arrange and the photos will retain their fixed (numbered) positions.

Please explain how to change Album sort order

I'm sorry if this has been asked before. I've looked everywhere and can't find a solution.
Itunes appears to be sorting my albums by year. For instance on my iPad under Dave Matthews the first album is Remember two thing from 1993.
I want to change the album order displayed on my iPad for everything under Dave Matthews Band. How do I do this?

Arrange roughly translates to "group the items in the folder." Sort is how each group is ordered. If you have arrange set to none, you can sort by anything. However, there is no way in the Arrange/Sort menu to choose the direction. The only way to do that is in the List View, and you must have Arrangement set to None.
I've submitted an Enhancement Request to allow choosing sort direction from the Arrange/Sort menu, but I haven't ever gotten a response, which is good and bad. Good because they will often respond that they have considered it and don't plan on implementing. Bad in that they've haven't implemented it.

How do you change the album sort order in itunes

It seems that Itunes sorts albums by Artist then Album... How can you change sort order to Album name only.

I've been playing with this and discovered it has to do with your personal ratings (ie stars) for albums and songs - seems iTunes now selects the highest rated album to use for the Artist icon. If you have no ratings it seems (but not always) to select the most recent album/song to use fo rthe display.
I've been able to get iTunes to use specific album artowk by rating both the album and all individual tracks as 5 star. You may need to restart iTunes for the changes to take effect.
But I'd be much happier just telling iTunes which image to use - like we used to be able to do. Yet another step backwards for iTunes 11 (one of many).

[solved] ncmpcpp - album sort?
