Issue with version ordering of multiple movie resolutions

[metalslaw 0]

EDIT : Ok, think I might have figured it out. I think if you have a custom 'sort title', it will use that before filename?...

 

I think my attached image explains the issue.

I can't for the life of me work out how the order of movie 'version'ing is being done.

I've tried pretty much everything, including temporarily making copies of the same resolution movie, and just naming them differently. Also putting 3 sets of timestamps possibly being used to the same.

I cannot get it to order in alphabetical/numerical order in the WebUI output.

It just seems to order randomly.

Note, I'm using the latest portable server version, and the pic is from the WebUI.

You can't get them alphabetical nor are they random but based on efficiency, each client will select highest-quality/most efficient version.

The default is the highest quality that can direct play, or if none can, the most efficient in terms of server resources required.

There's currently no way to control the order.

it is possible to have alphabetical order for multiple version?

I suppose, yes, although they are currently ranked on efficiency.
