PBzeer 6 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 (edited) Just got my little two laptop network set up (which was enough frustration), so I thought, since that was done, I'd install MB3 Server and MBC. Installation went easily, as did config, so once my library (movies only so far) had been scanned, I fired her up. Though I unchecked all but movies, everything else still shows up in the title bar. Okay, I can live with that. What I don't like though, is after editing all my metadata (I have remote turned off) to have the movies display where I want them, in the order I want them, it seems to totally ignore all my sort tags. So while I have (for instance) all the Fast and Furious movies with a sort tag of Fast & Furious 1 through 6, it puts them by the film title. Is there something I'm overlooking, or is this just the way things are now? Edited February 8, 2014 by PBzeer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Koleckai Silvestri 1150 Posted February 8, 2014 Solution Share Posted February 8, 2014 Sort tags work for me... If you go to the server and look at the metadata for the individual items what does it say for the sort tag? Click on the MediaBrowser Logo, find Fast and the Furious under Movies and edit it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PBzeer 6 Posted February 8, 2014 Author Share Posted February 8, 2014 Yeah, I can go back and redo them all that way. What I don't understand is why it isn't reading the tags that are already there. I thought I had all fetching of metadata turned off before I loaded the library to the server, so I don't know why it's ignoring it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koleckai Silvestri 1150 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 If the sort title shows in the Metadata Editor, it may just require a save to update the system. You can try running the Library Scan in the dashboard as well under Scheduled Tasks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PBzeer 6 Posted February 8, 2014 Author Share Posted February 8, 2014 Rechecked the metadata tab in the dashboard, and download metadata was rechecked, though I unchecked it at set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigjohn 656 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 PBeezer, I believe this is a known issue. Check out this thread: http://mediabrowser.tv/community/index.php?/topic/4326-sortname-not-being-read-from-moviexml/ I think you will probably see a change in this in a future release of MBServer.
