How do I sort a TV Show library by title when browsing over DLNA?

I'm running 4.7.8.0 (and have tried the latest Beta)
My issue is, when browsing the TV Show library on the TV via DLNA, the show and folder views are ordered by file creation date rather than by show title.
There seems to be no option to change this.

My library is filed as follows:

\media\
      A\
        A Show\
        	    Season 1\
                          Episode 1
                          Episode 2
      B\
        B Show\
        	    Season 1\
                          Episode 1
                          Episode 2
...
       

When creating the library, I add each subfolder Media\A, Media\B etc...
The shows and episodes are indexed just fine.

I created a User called 'home', logged in and set sort orders to 'title' wherever I could find an option.

I then set 'home' as the default user for the DLNA server.

Then on the tv, connected to the server and browsed the tv library.
The sort order is wrong and I can't see how to change it.

This worked fine in older versions, but I can't get it to work now.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can get this to work?

Thanks,
Nick

Hi Luke,
The web app Show view displays in title order, but the TV is something else, probably file creation date.
I've tried refreshing all metadata and restarting but the order on the TV doesn't change.

Movies seems to behave the same.

It's a Panasonic TV

A 2020 model. 

I have an older model that does the same. 

It was working fine until I rebuilt my media library recently.
