4.7 Sort Order

Postby WildWalker » Mon Sep 17, 2012 7:09 am

Hello all,

I have upgraded to 4.7, and now my recently added albums are completely different, has the way Subsonic decides what is recent changed?

Probable reason is the initial scan of 4.7. Try adding another album now and it should appear as the most recently added.

Okay I'll try that, but will it sort out the existing albums?

I would be very surprised if it did.

Me too,

It looks like Subsonic uses a different method to sort Albums. I tried to remove a few albums, to re-add them as 'new'. Even after removing them, and using the 'clean database' tool, the albums still appeared in Subsonic (even though all the files and directories for those albums had been removed)

So re-adding them did not make all of them appear as Recently Added (some did, some did not)

So as a workaround, here is what I did.

1. remove the albums I want to show as newest
2. remove the folder from subsonic (just untick it)
3. Scan folders
4. Clean Database
5. Add the folder back to subsonic (just re-tick it)
6. Scan folders
7. copy newest albums back
8. Scan folders

The albums I copied back now show as newest, it's not idea, but at least the last 10 CDs I bought now show as newest.
