    Albums - Can I sort by Album-Artist?

    When I want to see the list of albums they're always sorted alphabetical A-Z.

    How do I get set up Asset to sort the Album list by Album Artist, then Year?

      In my Browse Tree I have now set it as...
      Album +\Album By Artist
      Is this what you mean?

      Or do you mean
      Album +\Additional +\+\Album By Artist

        By default the browse tree is:

        Additional
        Album by Artist

        if you wanted to save clicking Additional each time, you could add Album by Artist to the root

            Ok, so the albums are all there in one list sorted by Album-Artist.
            That's fine.

            But...
            The albums by each Album-Artist are sorted alphabetically.
            Is there any way I can get Asset to sort each of the Album-Artist's albums by year instead?

                Any chance of it being added to future updates?

                            Log onto the QNAP through a web browser >> App Center >> 'open' for Asset

                            Click Configure >> Edit Browse Tree as Text

                            add to the end:

                            Album by Artist

                              Actually it is possible to get Artist >> Album by release

                              Open the configuration then into the Additional folder add 'Artist' with 'no track listing' and 'a-z' checked

                              Then into Artist add 'root'

                              Then to browse go Additional >> Artist >> select artist >> Additional >> Album by release
