Title: Ignore "The" and "A" in artist's names.
Post by: beforetomorrow on April 12, 2019, 00:25:36

I would like this option as my previous media player and the one on my phone do this. Would be nice to have it equal among my devices.

Does this also apply to the list on the left side (local files etc.)?
