non-latin character and track order

Some Croation noise rock albums were not showing up in Subsonic and I figured out this had something to do with the charset. Fixed this by folowing the tips in this post. viewtopic.php?f=2&t=8254&hilit=international+characters

Now the albums show up on Subsonic, but Subsonic does something weird with the trackorder. This is probably related to the special characters. See the picture that I attached. Any solution to fix this?

Could you check what is written in the ID tag "TRCK" tag.
Use something like MP3tag to read - I wonder if you may have something like #/12 in the field.
This may be confusing SS.
I have SS running on a windows OS and the albums I have (few) with int. characters sort ok.

Thanks for your reply BKKKPewsey... Well tracknumbers look ok to me... See the attached image. I tagged the files with beets (http://beets.radbox.org/) and musicbrainz and this usually give me very good tags.

Having a Croatian sister-in-law helps :)

That is running SS 4.6 on windows
It must be something either odd with your os or there is still something wrong with the track no's
I am not too familiar with Picard (make it so No.1 (sorry trekkie ref))
Use MP3tag, that will show you exactly what is in the tags and also tell you if the ID3.2 tag is bad! - other programs don't seem to show this info.

EDIT: I have just noticed that you do not have the share icons - suggest an upgrade to 4.6 may solve your problems!

Wow BKKKPewsey, thank you very much for taking the time to recreate my problem!

I am a ubuntu/linux user and Subsonic is also running on an ubuntu server. I tried mp3tag and it works ok in Ubuntu with wine. Nice program indeed. Mp3tag made me notice that there were wrong discnumbers on the files, that gave me troubles. Changing the discnumbers solves the problem...

Great! I have some other albums with weird tracklistings in Subsonic, but I suspect this is a similar issue.
