Prerequisites: #2615
Overview
'By Folder' will be added to the UPnP submenu. As a result, FOLDER will have three submenus. This configuration is similar to ARTIST.
In other words, FOLDER corresponds to Subsonic's File Structure. ARTIST is Artist ID3. Each supporting the same submenu will make the classification more intuitive.
Web page changes
In fact, the one that has existed until now is actually By Folder 😅 (In #2615, the menu assignment is actually incorrect) This pull request will correct that. A new UPnP File Structure view that does not separate by folder has been created, and the submenu on the Web page has been corrected to select it correctly.
Simple List Means
If the user is English-speaking, it is almost equivalent to Alphabetical. To be more precise, it is a unique English-Japanese lexicographical order.
Example of sorting untagged data
Although there is an industrial standard for character sorting in Japanese, most people are not aware of it in their daily lives. The list of school student rosters is also left to discretion. To avoid ambiguity, the (local) rules may also be listed in the dictionary. (Even if it is a Japanese dictionary, it may differ depending on the dictionary.)
Jpsonic uses a sorting method similar to the general Japanese sense, and if nothing is specified in the sort tag, it will follow that rule. Regardless of whether it is perfect or not, Jpsonic's sorting is closer to the Japanese natural sort than existing ones.
What you may need to be careful about are the Greek letters(It would be better to add a sort tag). Greek letters are relatively familiar to Japanese people and are pronounced the same way as in Japanese. In fields such as music, it is common for words to be included in Japanese indexes without being treated as foreign words.
Example of sequential number sorting
It is rare that such advanced sorting is actually required, but it is applicable to reading-books with 10 or more volumes. This also applies when managing self-portrait audio files and videos that are mechanically named.
