Sorting Question/Bug, "the" being stripped from middle of titles?

[carpenter2003 3]

I've noticed that Emby seems to strip at least "the" from the middle of titles when sorting.  It may do other typical words that get stripped from the START of a title for proper sorting.  

 

I understand that common words are usually stripped from the beginning of a title but I've never heard of them being skipped over in the middle of a title.

 

an example:

 

Alice in Wonderland is being sorted BEFORE Alice in the Wooly West

 

I've found this in several spots as I've been fine tuning/comparing my new Emby library to my previous Plex library.

Hi, when did you originally install emby server?

[carpenter2003 3]

Maybe 2nd week in March, signed up for Premiere March 13th.

I copied a small movie file and did some testing and it does seem on my system at least that "A, The & An" do get ignored in the middle of the filename for sorting.

 

Its pretty rare that it comes up, I just happen to have a bunch of old Disney Short Films with a lot of similar titles so when comparing to my old Plex library I was seeing the spots where it popped up.

Ok, with a brand new fresh installation this shouldn't happen anymore, but for servers created prior to 4.4 this will be an issue.
