Hello,
I'm just making the switch to MM5 (5.0.1.2433, also tried 5.0.2.2500) from 4 and found that some of my auto playlists are no longer sorting as they used to. These playlists have the following sort rules:
Added Z..A
Album A..Z
Track # A..Z
This gave me a list of tracks I had most recently added, ensured albums were grouped if I added multiple albums at the same time, and then sorted each album by track number. This worked because when I added a whole album or several albums at once the Added date was the same on all of the tracks. Now tracks within albums are usually either backwards or in a nearly random order. Sometimes they appear in the desired order but the sort by Track rule actually has no effect until I remove sort by Added.
I have double checked that he Added date/time in the file Properties for tacks that were added together are the same. Their date/time is identical. I have also gone back to MM4 and checked that it wasn't just a fluke that tracks appeared in the desired order, but that is not the case and sorting by Track # (and Disc #) there does affect the order.
This affects files and auto playlists that were added both before and after the switch to MM5.
Auto Playlist sort by Track doesn't work when preceded by a sort by Added [#5215]

Hi,
thanks for reporting, it seems that #5215 has not been ported to MM5.
Tracking as https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view ... 215#c21171 to be fixed for 5.0.2
