How to sort by tracknumber and disknumber

Hello,

I have some multi-disk albums. Their track numbers are correct, but if there are two disks, the tracks are displayed like this:

01 Track_on_first_disk
01 Track_on_second_disk
02 Another_track_on_disk_1
02 ...
...

What tag do I need to include (in vorbis files) so that the tracks can be sorted properly? I have tried DISK and DISKNUMBER, but moc doesn't care about these. I'd like the tracks like this:

01 ...
02 ...
03 ...
...
18 ...
01 ...
02 ...

If moc doesn't currently support this, I'd like to request this as a feature please :)

cheers

If I'm not mistaken Moc sorts only by filename for now. Myself, I just name my multidisk files "x-yy title.ext" (consistent with eg. Musicbrainz standard)

Yes, I think I will do this. I should be naming my music consistently anyway, and if this is how moc sorts it, then I shall do it this way.

I assumed that moc sorts music using the track number as reported in the tag; I didn't realise it used filenames.

With reference to this post and bearing in mind that directory contents are represented (internally, at least) in MOC as playlists, would you like to have separate playlists (read "directory lists") for each disc?

I see that it's a lot more complicated than I thought.

No, I'd want just a single playlist. I consider both disks to be part of the same album, so they should be in the same list...just sorted so that the first disk comes after the second.

However, that assumes that one keeps their music in an artist/album/ directory structure, i.e. put all the songs of the same album in the same directory. Other people might not do this, so I guess there are too many edge cases for this to be a coherent feature request.
