Videos playing in wrong order.

Postby TheonTurncloak » 27 Aug 2012 15:32

Hey there,
When I choose "open folder" to watch my videos, they play in the wrong order. They go video 1 then video 10 then video 11 etc. then it plays video 2 then video 20 then video 21 etc.

Anyone know how to fix this?

If it helps my videos are titled like so - "1 - Title" "2- Title" Etc.

Okay.
Can you tell me why VLC is reading it as 1 then 10 then 11 etc?
Cause even when I add the folder to the playlist they get added in the wrong order. I know how to reorder them, but I'd also like to know why it's doing it like that.
