Hi,
I choose Hierarchy, by Album Artist, by year and this is what I get:
This doesn't seem right to me?
Sort order
Re: Sort order
Hierarchy by Album Artist by Year is defining what you see on the hierarchy tree - on the right hand side where the albums are listed there is a secondary ordering for the albums which match the selected tree node - and you can change this ordering without affecting the hierarchy tree. It looks like you have selected the Album Artist from the tree but not a Year beneath that. On the right hand side it looks like it's ordering by Album Name.
