Hello all;

 

I have a problem with the sorting order being different in "My Media" vs the metadata listing.  So I have my media folders and attempted to sort them by following: http://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/3199-how-do-i-change-the-sort-order-of-my-media-folders/I have done that before with no problems but I had to reinstall window 7 (64bit if it matters) unexpectedly.

The issue is this, the folders are sorted correctly in the metadata page and Emby classic (in MCE):

It is incorrectly sorted in My Media section though:

And of course it appears in that order in all other devices (like the Roku).

I have sorted them by numbers in my previous install (as I have currently) and there was not an issue but I cannot figure out what could be going on in this case.  Any ideas?  My number sorting for each item is shown here:

I have also tried sorting them alphabetically, (a, b,c, d & e) but the result is very much the same, sorted in the metadata list and classic but not in my media.  

 

Thanks for any assistance.

Ok, apologies, that article is obsolete so I've deleted it. There is a dedicated sort order in the UI now, click your user icon in the top right -> settings -> home screen

If all users should have the same experience, then you have to repeat the sorting order for each user now as well.

Fantastic!  It worked like a charm.  Thanks
