Hello all

Firstly, I know this must have been asked hundreds of times and I have used the search forum to try and find an answer but I have not been able too.

I want films that are part of set to be displayed in order.

For example

The Fast & The Furious
2 Fast 2 Furious

not

2 Fast 2 Furious
The Fast & The Furious

I have read how you can edit the nfo to place the films into a seperate set but I don't want them to be shown as a box set, just together in the order they were released.

I also have this problem with the Harry Potter and Star Trek Movies...

Star Wars is fine because it is all Star Wars Episode xx etc...

Again, sorry for asking a question that must have been asked and answered hundreds of times, I just can't find the answer via search or via wiki.

Thanks guys
This is purely speculation, but something you can try is creating an nfo file with the <sorttitle> listed. Maybe something like:
Quote:<movie>
<title>The Fast & The Furious</title>
<sorttitle>Fast & The Furious 1</sorttitle>
</movie>
http://www.themoviedb.org/movie/9799

Then for the other movie:
Quote:<movie>
<title>2 Fast 2 Furious</title>
<sorttitle>Fast & The Furious 2</sorttitle>
</movie>
http://www.themoviedb.org/movie/584

You will need to remove them from the library, and then update inorder to pick up the nfo files. You may just be able to refresh them, but I am not sure. Let us know if this works.
No need to remove them from the library. Just modify the nfos and then refresh the movies.
Thanks guys, I will give it a try to tomorrow and report back
Thanks for the tips and sorry for the delay in reporting back..

I stumbled across an easy solution. Just use Ember... When you edit the movie you can enter a sorted by name.
