Good day all,
Can Qnap's DLNA server sort files on the actual filename instead of sorting on mp3-tagname?
Since Twonky is no longer offered, I turned to Qnap's own DLNA server. And it works fine, well ... almost. I use DLNA for listening to my mp3 collection, over my audio receiver. With the 'Media Streaming Add-on' I set it up to list the files in 'Folders'. But when I play the files in a folder they are alpabetically sorted according to the mp3-tagname which is wrong and annoying. I want the files to be played in the right order, according to their actual filenames.
Even better would be if the 'Media Streaming Add-on' would allow the user to select the sorting order of their choice.
I am running firmware 4.3.3.0210 on a TS-251C.
Regards, Peter.

Yes, thank you. I am aware of that. But if Qnap can get sorting in its DLNA-server to work properly, then there is no need to separately install - and pay for - Twonky.
