Full Version: How to ignore articles in multilingual titles

By default, XBMC allows users to ignore articles such as "The" while sorting video files...however some of you may have noticed that "A" is not ignored (this makes "A Clockwork Orange" appear with the other As and not with the Cs), nor are the different languages articles such as "Le" which also mean "the". So I have complied a list of sort tokens that can be inserted in to one's advancedsettings.xml file in the userdata folder for many different languages so that xbmc will ignore these articles as well as the, and it works very well for me so I thought I finally would share it. (this has been tested in Windows and Ubuntu on Xbmc 12.2)
