I have mine working, though selecting by artist still presents some
problems when I have more than one album. For example if I select Queen,
then the first thing I see is 19 tracks beginning with 01!

For me the title is of the form nn - Title where nn is the two digit track
number, note that I use a hyphen and no dots in my titles, not sure if that
is relevant though. My filenames are identical, again no dots or slashes,
just the hyphen and spaces to separate track number from title.

All my tracks have MP3v1 and v2 tags with Tag&Rename being used to sync
them.

Graham
