I've just taken delivery of a F11 520d and have connected a USB stick with mp3s that I'd previously used in my older E60. In the E60 then each album's tracks were in the original album order, presumably based on the track order tagging when the CDs were ripped. So now with the identical same USB stick and files in my F11, the tracks are shown and play in alphabetical order. I'm not sure how to change or correct this - any ideas?

I used a free CD ripper called Spesoft however it seemed to put all the right mp3 tag info in there (I've looked at the files with an mp3 tag edit utility).

Any suggestions or help very welcome (including any recommendations for a good, preferably free, mp3 ripper that supports a choice of bit rates). Thanks.

You have pro nav?, why not just use the built in cd ripper and store the tracks on the internal hard drive.
