With SlimServer 6.5.1 the Browse Music Folder order algorithm has been
changed so that my system will not work... Intital Underscores in the
folder names is now neglected.

---

I have the majority of my music sorted as: 

Artist/Year Album/Track Title.flac

But for some music types, not accessed frequently, like compilations or
special genres, such as Childrens music, Classical, Musicals and Jazz I
have added an extra level in parallel of the Artist level:

_Genre/Artist/Year Album/Track Title.flac

As you see, to separate the Artist from the Genres, I have added a
underscore as a first character, this way I will get all those folders
in the top or end of the list when browsing music folders. Otherwise I
would have needed one more folder level. This is working very good. I
always use the Browse Music Folder when selecting music, I even
assigned the Search remote button for this task - very handy!

Now for my problem:

After installing SS 6.5.1 (Earlier version was before 6.5, dont
remember the exact version, probably 6.3.x) the folder order algorithm
has been changed so that the underscores is neglected, placing my Jazz
music in between of Iron Maiden and Jean-Michel Jarre, not the best
place to search for Jazz...

I even tried to replace the Underscore with a Hyphen, but it did not
make any change. Anyone that can help me to solve this? Suggestion for
another intial character or any flag to set the way the order algorithm
works?

Does this unit has a bad motivator?
