Category folders, sorted by track-number

Greetings!
I would like to see a new category, for example "Folders - sorted by tracks".
My problem: i am browsing my mp3-albums in the folder structure logic of the disc. I have tag-data with track numbers but not numbered file names (and not album-infos in the tags neither). So my album files are shown alphabetically but not in the correct track order and i cannot sort it on my samsung tv. I learned, that the category "folders" is alphabetically. So I would REALLY APPRECIATE to see a possibility to either have an option to switch the sorting in "folders" to track number (or other) or have a new category with this feature (folder browsing, showing in track order). :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Thanks a lot for figuring this out!
Alex

Would a Albums category be useful? There already is Folders category. What is the use case, how do you listen to your music?

Well I am listening to the music folder based, as i have ordered it in different ways which is not possible to do with tag data. Imagine you have a CD collection with several boxes in and there another little boxes with each several cds. That's why i have to use the folder browsing. It then would be nice, when the tracks in the album folders would be sorted:
1. priority: by track number information
2. priority (if 1. not available): by filename

All this combined with folder browsing would be THE SOLUTION for me! :D
