Question: Sorting in HDD-OSD

[dskw]

Hi, thank you for the awesome work on the toolchain!

I was wondering if you have an idea how the HDD-OSD is coming up with the order/sorting for the entries it shows. So far I have the impression that everything seems to be sorted by a mixture of creation and last modification date.

Wth the last update of my HDD I have updated all the icons of the PSX games, then transfered additional PS2 games and updated their icons.

The resulting order shows the new PS2 games first, then all the PSX games, then the remaining PS2 games.

My guess is that the HDD-OSD sorts by last modifiction date. Updating PSX icons causes a new modification. While for PS2 it seems to only use the date of creation. But that is still just a guess from observation.

Do you know if there is any way to enforce a specific order? Or is it simply going by type and then name? All my titles use the old OPL naming pattern by starting with the Game ID first

EDIT: After just updating the icon of individual PSX and PS2 games the order did not change, so the idea of it being caused by a modification date is invalid.
