MY MUSIC sort by filename please

[roadrash]

i know ive asked for this before but is it possible to add the option to "sort by" filename, in the "my music" menu. currently xbmc lists by name, date, size but the name field is taken from the id3 tag and not the true filename.
i know i can turn off the id3 tags but if i do this i lose the scrolling info that is displayed when a track is played.
it would be nice to keep the scrolling id3 tags and be able to "sort by" filename as well. xbox media player does this as default so please can xbmc do it too.
at the moment, the only way i can get a list of files within a directory displayed aphabetically and keep the scrolling id3 tags, is to create an aphabetical playlist using xbox media player and use that playlist in xbmc.

i agree this would be a very useful option, because id3 tags don't often have include tracknumbers. it would be nice to have album tracks in correct order even when using "show id3 info"-option.

Is this something that is possible?

There are several good programs that can rename your mp3's based on the id3 tags.
For Windows:
TagScanner 5 (http://www.download.com/TagScanner/3000-2141_4-10637515.html?tag=lst-4-7)
For Linux:
easytag (http://easytag.sourceforge.net/)

For Mac:

Thanks for the tip sport .. so I suppose it is EXTREMELY difficult to add in this feature ...

If it was your intent to sound like an arsehole, then well done.

If your tags are crap, then either turn them off or fix them. Problem solved.

And I just took 2 minutes out of my busy schedule to check, and sure enough, there is ALREADY a sort by file mode.

Nice work, sport.

Don't want to push this any further, I think that roadrash is asking for that sort in library mode.

I do agree about fixing tags though; it is the best option.
