Unicode sorting for music folder "broken"

Open netplumber opened this issue 7 years ago • 3 comments

Unicode sorting for music folder "broken". Sorting for folders with "latin" names is fine. Build - Logitech Media Server Version: 7.9.2 - 1533033975

Never noticed this before, but you're right. In Web UI (and iPeng):

Home > Music Folder > FLACs

Haydn, Joseph Hindemith, Paul Händel, Georg Friedrich Holst, Gustav

LMS 7.9.2 - 1533559127

FWIW: "regular" browsing is using SQLite's sorting routines which comes with extensive ICU (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Components_for_Unicode) support. BMF isn't using SQLite. We'd have to somehow implement ICU support for this separately.

...or we use a temporary SQLite table rather than internal data structures to handle this. Just an idea. Not saying I'm going to investigate this any time soon. Or not. Whatever. :-D
