As I mentioned in a previous post, when browsing Music by Genre on my Pioneer AVR the listing isn't sorted.
I now noticed that browsing TV shows by Title on my Panasonic TV or the Nexus 7 isn't sorted either. Log: http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=11099
If this is caused by the devices not requesting a sort order, would it be possible to default to sorting by sorttitle? I don't really see a UPnP scenario where an unsorted list would be more useful than a sorted one.
Edit: Hmm, maybe they are sorted after all, but by date which doesn't seem very useful.

Tried the 20121020-a6c2d72 Windows build on an iPad running MLPlayer light. A couple of observations:
1) if a movie is a part of added to XBMC and is a part of a set, the the whole set (folder) shows up in recently added. Not sure if that's intended behaviour or not.
2) I don't think the sorting code is merged in yet right? "A" "an" the" etc are still taken into account
3). Going into 'video' then 'files' lists all files, not just video files (so my .nfo, -fanart.jpg, etc). Is this intended behaviour? Seems a little strange/off in UPnP given the branch we're in....
Gotta say the UPnP is already MILES better than before!
Will try with other clients when I have a moment.

I'm wondering about whether we just ignore the sort criteria, as clients seem to stick with one for the whole library. Is there an option on the Panasonic or Nexus to alter the sorting in the client's user interface?
(2012-10-20, 17:14)sialivi Wrote: [Client Freezing]
Just played around with another piece of UPnP client software for android called Skifta and encountered an issue. While browsing the XBMC library, the UPnP client would freeze after a while. I could repeat it multiple times. Often the freeze would happen when navigating back to the XBMC root where you only see the "Music" and "Videos" nodes.
I have no idea if this is a bug in the client or in XBMC.
Here's the log: http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=11028
Edit: By "freeze" I mean the client would get stuck with a "retrieving media" message and a spinning activity indicator, but it would never complete.

Unfortunately not. Ignoring the sort criteria is probably not a good idea if other devices do offer that functionality. Wasn't there talk about adding functionality to xbmc to allow for having a configuration file per-device? If that is ever implemented, it might be good to allow defining the sort order there.

This is pretty weird, it's spinning trying to request the addons node (which we refuse to return), I thought I'd fixed that by returning the correct number of items - 1. Obviously not. I'll download Skifta and play with it.

Doing this by device is also possible, but it's likely we'd inverse the behaviour and only respect the criteria passed when we know the client is smart enough to request the correct order.
So I'm still leaning towards just ignoring it for this release of XBMC.

Let them cry if they will (...and some will), but the new default IMHO is far better. Even if I rip an old movie to add to my collection, the file gets the current date and shows up properly using the default behavior.

I've read that Bravia's are particularly fussy. The issue is even if they showed up, the protocol info needs modified before they'd play anything. If I can, I'll try and get them at least showing up in time. We can modify platinum to get this happening the issue is just the ability to debug this in time.
