Music playback

[jd1940]

When playing my music albums (all classical) I notice the various movements are played out of order, which is a problem for us purists . I see there is a Shuffle header at the top but that doesn't seem to do anything for me. Is there a way to stop NPVR from playing selections out of order? FYI, I set up my music folder using Media Monkey and all music is in the flac format. I notice there is a plugin for Media Monkey. Would this solve the problem. I don't currently have MM installed on the client computer but I could do so if that would help. When I select the playlist option at the top of the NPVR screen I can see the playlist order but I can't get it to list in the proper order. Obviously I could make all selections manually but it would be nice if the music played in its proper order once the original selection was made.

It's different for me too, but this is the way sub likes to listen. They can be played in alpha order if you have

<AutoQueueAudioTracks>true</AutoQueueAudioTracks>
<AutoShufflePlaylist>false</AutoShufflePlaylist>

and hit play on the first one in the list where you want to start.

I ended up renaming all of my mp3's. They used to be <artist> - <song title> which displayed (and played) them alphabetically (and I agree that it caused a problem for me too. ) And now the new format is <track number> - <song title> which just displays the song title and plays them in the correct order.

I think you are just lucky because I think they play in raw directory order which is not necessarily sorted. Mine are all 01 02 etc.

I changed the shuffle setting in the Config.xml file. I'm assuming that's the one you meant since both those entries were in it. Thanks for the help.
