Tje playing order is determined by the file name. Generally, the "view" is
alphabetical, so that is the order they will most likely play in.
Unfortunately, the only way to fix this is to name the songs with a two (or
three) digit number before the real name of the song. So, for example,
Showe The People.mp3
would need to be
01 Shower The People.mp3
if you wanted it to play first in that album's group of songs. Assuming this
was the only album in the folder and no other songs start with 01.
This is a vastly frustrating thing for eeveryone in the world, not just you.
Most music rippers will have the aibility to build the song name from a list
of items such as song name, artis name, album name, album track, etc. These
are the pieces of a tag which is embedded in that song file when it is
converted to mp3 format. By choosing the track number (usually a two digit
number) as the first thing in the tag, you can assure that all your albums
will play in the correct order. This is because if your "view" of any
folder is alphabeticaal, the numbers will sort from lowest to highest and
you get the order you wish.
Sorry there is no better answer.
