I use Jukebox in all of my performances. Recently
Jukebox has a mind of it's own, sort of.
If I select a folder of performance songs, which I have numbered for an hour set, Jukebox will not play that numbered list.
Instead it plays....
What I did for Love, followed by
You Are my Sunshine,
Alley Cat,
That's Amore,
It's a Sin,
For the Good times. (and continues a specific list. The problem is that it is not MY list)

If I take away the numbers in front of the performance list, Instead of playing the song in the folder in alphabetical order, IT STILL PLAYS...
What I did for love, followed by
You Are my Sunshine
Alley Cat etc.,etc., etc.

If I remove a song from the list and place it on my desktop, the same list is played but without the song on the desktop.
When starting Jukebox, "alphabetical" not "random play" is checked.
Any thoughts.
I reloaded the entire usb BIAB 2018 ultra pack, (took hours), same results

Hi Jazzsax,

You numbered these files by adding numbers to the beginning of the file names, correct?

If you put that folder in a ZIP file and send it to support@pgmusic.com, we'll be happy to try replicating the issue.

Thanks

I have the same problem as outline above. The 'Alphabetical' order doesn't seem to stick when I select it in the options. I'm on BiaB 2021, Mac version.

The issue with the Jukebox not playing in alphabetical order has been reported to development. As for the original issue with numbered songs, as Kent said we would be happy to help through our support email: support@pgmusic.com
