I am having a problem with the sort order of some band names. My Pink Floyd albums are sorted as "Floyd, Pink". Similarly Electric Light Orchestra is sorted as "Light Orchestra, Electric". All other band names seem to be.. fine. For instance Fleetwood Mac does not come out as "Mac, Fleetwood". All solo artists are sorted properly by last name, first name.
You need to edit the "Sort by" field in the Artist/Person lookup table (you only have to do this once for each artist). Let's use Pink Floyd as an example:
| 1. | In the Album View, locate a Pink Floyd album, then open the Album Edit window. |
| 2. | In the Artist field, right-click the artist name and choose Edit from the popup menu. |
| 3. | In the Artist/Person window, update the Sort by field like this:![]() |
| 4. | Click OK. All albums (and tracks) by Pink Floyd are now sorted under "P" instead of "F". |
You can also edit artist names from the Lookup View. For more information, click here.
