    [Software] Dolphin Explorer does not sort by album

    Dolphin Explorer does not sort by album, even though this option is selected. The songs are .flac files.

    How can I get Dolphin to actually sort music files by album?

    You probably don't have the album tags embedded in the files.

      I’ve edited the files correctly; could it be that Dolphin isn’t able to handle .flac files properly?

        On my PC Elisa and VLC both show album info but Dolphin doesn't. Same with track number.

          Ah, I had a brain fart.

          You need to have file content indexing enabled, I believe, and after some period of time you should see the info.
