    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

    Added 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
