Re: [Banshee-List] Feature Suggestion

[Michael Martin-Smucker <mlmartin13 gmail com>]

For example, you could open up the edit window�for a song by The National�(right click -> Edit Track Information), switch to the "Sorting" tab, and set the Sort Track Artist to "National, The". �Banshee will now sort that track with the N's but will still display the artist name as "The National". �You can edit multiple tracks at once, but it still gets a bit tedious to go through your whole music library and edit this, which is why Bertrand linked to the report requesting that Banshee do this automatically.
