It would be great if the sorting is changed to a natural sorting. (like php's sort() and natsort())

Here's a workround
In that particular case if you change the digits to double digits throughout it will sort correctly.
eg Season 01 etc
:mrgreen:

Well yes this is a workaround but still... why wouldn't you want subsonic to sort naturally...

I have/had (I worked around it with the help of BKKK) this issue with Friends. For a while I just renamed "Season 10" to "Season Ten".

For those of you who are wondering why this happens, check this out: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=8664.

I think the reason is with the sorting. I you read the link I provide, you will quickly see what I am talking about.

well there is definitely a way to do a natural sort with java/javascript and I would kindly ask that it gets implemented :D
