Ogg Vorbis: Tracks under Album are NOT sorted by ID3 track number

SanDisk MP3 players SanDisk® Clip Jam

Tested with “The Beatles - Abbey Road”, I’ve used Ogg Vorbis, Mp3 and FLAC.

Ogg Vorbis:  Tracks under Album are NOT sorted by ID3 track number, FLAC and Mp3 are ok.

Same solution with “Musik” and “SD-Card”.

I tried a Tool named “DriveSort” for FAT32 too, same result (Folder in DriveSort shows sorted).

Ogg Vorbis doesn’t sort.

Very bad, because of Gapless Playback (which could work with FLAC ore Ogg). 

But Gapeless Playback does’nt work good at this time with Sandisk Clip Jam (about 0.3 sec. silence). :-(( 

I hope for solution.

I’ve had this exact same problem, haven’t found any solution I’m afraid.

I’ve tried re-encoding the ID3 tracknumber tag using just about every version and character encoding under the sun and gotten nowhere. It’s sorting either by filename or file modified time, I don’t recall.

I hope sandisk put out a fix for this soon, cos my shiny new clip jam is kinda useless at the moment. Shame, cos I’ve owned previous versions of the clip series and only had good things to say about them in the past.

the issue has been reported to sandisk support. they are looking into possible supporting ID3 track number sorting for Ogg files. ID3 tag track number is supported for the other supported file types so you can convert the files to one of the other supported file types and it will sort by track number.

Good to know they’re looking into this, thanks :slight_smile:
