Awesome to see this fixed so quickly!!! I have noticed some other strange behaviour in my Music Video node. I have it set to "Show Art". When I start MM everything (usually) looks fine and all the 'letters' are expanded:

But, sometimes, when I go to another node and then back to Music Videos it looks like this:

And I say (usually) looks fine because, sometimes, when I start MM all of the 'letters' are collapsed:

This happens in the standard and portable versions. Have I set some kind of setting I don't know about? And is there some way to Collapse/Expand All rather than having to go through and clicking every letter? Cheers.

Thanks Lowlander, Seems it's been fixed so can't wait for next build release to check.

Thanks Lowlander, I'm using the 1385 build so it can't be that. From what I can see it's something to do with the "Enable Grouping (Artwork views)" in Collection Options for columns. When this is turned on, the first Artist that begins with 'The' is where ALL the artists beginning with 'T' are sorted. (I have MM options set to 'Ignore prefixes when sorting by Artist: the' but it doesn't seem that "Enable grouping" isn't taking this into account.) So my first one is The Angels which means T is sorted after A ie: A, T, B, C, D, E, etc. If I remove this file from the library my next artist is The Buggles and then T is sorted after B ie: A, B, T, C, D, E, etc. When "Enable Grouping" is turned off the videos sort as they should by ignoring the 'The' - The Angels in A, The Buggles in B, etc. I hope this makes sense and sheds some more light on the problem. Cheers.

Hi there, I have the view in my Music Videos node set to "Show Art" When I sort by Album Artist, the sort sequence goes A, T, B, C, D, E, etc. Can anyone shed any light on why this would happen? I don't have any videos in my Video node so I can't say if the same thing happens there. Cheers.
