Title Sorting Issue

First want to say that I love this program. It has made using my WDTV Live SMP work perfectly. i recently updated to 1.0.1 and am not sure if this was happening before hand but, under the title category I went to watch "Die Hard" and couldn't find it. It ended up being sorted under Hard instead of Die. I use the xbmc nfo files and have checked them and everything is correct. It shows Die Hard but just sorts it under the H's. It is not a problem but just really bothers me for some reason. I hope it is something that I am just not seeing and appreciate any help with the matter. Here is the nfo file just in case.

  Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<movie>
  <title>Die Hard</title>
  <originaltitle>Die Hard</originaltitle>
  <sorttitle>Die Hard</sorttitle>
  <plot>NYPD cop John McClane's plan to reconcile with his estranged wife, Holly, is thrown for a serious loop when minutes after he arrives at her office, the entire building is overtaken by a group of pitiless terrorists. With little help from the LAPD, wisecracking McClane sets out to single-handedly rescue the hostages and bring the bad guys down.</plot>
  <year>1988</year>
  <tagline>Twelve terrorists. One cop. The odds are against John McClane... That's just the way he likes it.</tagline>

you are right, I didn't realize this. I wanted to do the same that is happening with The in English names (not to use it for sorting) with Die (German). I will probably remove it.

This is still happening. The Die Hard Series is sorted under H. Is there any way to fix this yet?

Hello,

is there any way to configure sorting? I'm from Germany and I'd like to have sorted movies like "The Avengers" under "T", not "A".
Perhaps it's possible to disable considering articles like "The", "Der", "Die", "Das", "La", "Le", ... to sort the movies "as they are"?

Thanks...

It's not configurable now
