One artist not appearing in right order

[toaster56]

All the tags look good but for some reason, doesn't matter which album or order I choose it goes to sdort by last name.
Andreas Vollenweider always appears in the V and not in the A.
See screenshot

Thanks

Re: One artist not appearing in right order

Somewhere you have the artist sort set, or album artist sort. It does not even have to be that album, any with the same artist name.

PerfectTUNES can help you quickly locate which files have this sort value set (on recommendations list, it can show inconsistent sort values, you can remove set the sort value to the value you want). After this do a full rescan in Asset, refresh all.

I downloaded perfectTUNES but it's not finding anything wrong. Unless i'm not in the right place?

I guess there isn't much I can do?

Sorry missed your msg, you need the 'Sort Tags' selection, then look at arist, album artist and composer individually, look for the artist name in question in the list, if it says inconsisent values you know soemthing is set.

Re: One artist not appearing in right order

SO in artist or album artist sort this is what I see now (screenshot)
Before found the artist in the list, clicked the arrow and saw that it was Last, First. I changed manually to First, Last and then closed and reopened the app and now it's at the top of the list.
When I browse the artist on my phone (simaudio Moon mind) If I look at all artist it shows up in V but if I select the A-E option it shows up in there

I'm surprised that neither mp3tag nor media monkey could see this tag but happy I found an app that did!
So how would I go about making this change permanent now?

Re: One artist not appearing in right order

You have done a full refresh in asset (rescan refresh all)?

Re: One artist not appearing in right order

Seems like it's all good now!
So which tag would it have been? No other application could see it.
Thanks for the help!
