Titles that begin with A or An should have those words ignored when sorting, just as titles that start with The.

For now you can edit your langinfo.xml and add this two sort tokens to ignore
I made something like this for my language

[ronie]

you can already do that using advancedsettings.xml

Ignoring "a" is not working for me either since moving to isengard. I have

<sorttokens>
<token>the</token>
<token>a</token>
</sorttokens>

in advanced settings but no effect

Can you get us a debug log (wiki) of when you start Kodi up with that advancedsettings.xml file?

[mr.sparkle]

got it now, replaced small "a" with a big "A", seems to be working

are the tokens case sensitive?

[flabbamann]

are the tokens case sensitive?

Yes, that is definitely the case (pun intended! ).
I had the german articles

Code:

<token>der</token>
<token>die</token>
<token>das</token>

which were working on pre-isengard.

After the upgrade I had to change the first letter to uppercase to match my show's directory names.
Maybe someone should leave a note on the wiki.

Will do
