Foobar2000 Question

It seems my albums are always out of order. The albums all go completely random if i organize my library a different way. It's really annoying. Is there any way to keep my albums in order? 

 

I switched to Foobar2000 from Itunes after I read about it on this forum... i haven't missed itunes at all but it can be really hard to keep my stuff organized sometimes.... 

 

Oh and on an unrelated note, are there any themes you guys would recomend that works with the latest version of f2k? They all seem to be made for older versions...

That was what was playing at the moment. The tracks are in order as I add them to f2k, but eventually they get disordered. Is there a way to maybe 1. reorder them or 2. keep them in order?

If you right click it has a group/sort setting, I just use default, and everything goes in the right order.

which column are you using to sort?  it seems like you must be clicking on a column heading that causes them to sort in an undesierable order.

In the shot it was being sorted by artist. The albums were alphabetical under each artist, but but the tracks are random.

Ok actually I think I got it. I went to "sort by fields" and went Artist name, then Album name, then Track Number. 

This was perfect, Thanks a lot guys. I'm loving F2k so far. Way better than itunes. 

 

So would you folks happen to know any recomended themes that would work with F2k 1.1.7? If not than no worries haha. 

 

Thanks again!
