Hi. I try to encode an audiobook that contains 107 single mp3 chapters. teddy converts all the files seemingly in the right order, but: after successfull encode all chapters are in the wrong order. I tryed to add mp3 tags with track numbers as well as numbering within the title and filenames. nothing helps.

what do I have to do to get an audiobook with the right ordered chapters?

by the way: over 100 chapters seems to be not possible. box delivers error "Eule/owl" but the rest of the question still persists

i had a quit similar problem today... it looks he sort all just wrong... than i realize, that because i reset the whole box before - the skip / clap side are switched. So i always skipped back... and didnt know why!

So i switched it, on mytonies website and it works now! Can you check this for your question?

For me it was the counter number in the filename. If they are named xxx-1.mp3, xxx-2.mp3, ..., xxx-10.mp3, ... then windows will sort the files to encode like xxx-1.mp3, xxx-10.mp3, . .. ,xxx-2.mp3, xxx-20.mp3. In order for the files to be sorted correctly, they must padded with zeros: xxx-001.mp3, xxx-002.mp3, ..., xxx-010.mp3, ... see for example https://www.meridiandiscovery.com/how-to/why-windows-sorts-numeric-file-names-differently/

The latest version should have a dialog for sorting. Also you should dragndrop the folder, not the files.

And you cannot add more than 99 chapters.
