Audio (music) track order

I scanned some other topics but cannot find any that have the same issue as me.

When playing my music on the TV, regardless which which category I go through:
Artists
Album Artists
Folders
Genres
etc....

The order of the music is always alphabetical. My TV is Samsung UE40ES6300 and most of my music was saved / created using Windows Media Player, saving as MP3 files, with the file names being <track_#>_<track_name>.mp3, but there are a few that don't have track_# as such when playing the order isn't correct.

So for example, I have an album with songs, and if I view via Explorer the column "#" shows the track order, but as soon as I look at this on the TV, they are always A to Z, regardless of track order.

Is there a way to resolve this, I am sure I am missing something very simple, but please bare with me as I am Novice.

Re: Audio (music) track order

I digitized my CD collection last year. I used Itunes to convert about 800 classical CDs. I created my own directory structure so I could find the music easily. It is my experience that all directories list alphabetically. itunes put a disk no / track no. prefix on every track to keep them in proper order. Occasionally I had to modify tags, but not often. Separate directories for each CD was essential.

FYI, i used 320K mp3, software error correction, VBR highest quality. The directory structure I settled on varied a bit for each composer, but in general was Major Genre, composer, type within composer, artist, CD. For Example: Classical; Beethoven, Symphonies, Hogwood, individual CDs
