The playback order of music files. How to?

Sorry! But I cannot understand how Serviio decide which file should be sent to DLNA client. The situation is as follows. I have iTunes library directory with a lot of files placed in folders. Names of these files and folders are defined in accordance with iTunes rules. So if album has only one disk then file name is <track number>-<track name>.mp3. But if album has a set of disks then file name is <disk number>-<track number>-<track name>.mp3. And in the last case playback order is not correct.
Is it possible to resolve the situation?

Depending on the category you're accessing the files through. If you go through Folders, it should send them ordered by file name. Otherwise it's ordered by track number. Disk number is not taken into consideration yet, so you'd probably end up playing D1T1, D2T1, D1T2, D2T2, ....
