I use mp4tag to organize my library and track ordering is off when i use a single number for the tag (e.g. 12 as opposed to 12/19 for a 19 track album). Tracks seem to order as 1,10,11,12...19,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. Should I be using the total track count in the tag with the /?
Thanks for any help.
This is classic situation with string comparisons. The solution is to number tracks 01, 02, ..., 99 if one knows there will never be more that 99 tracks.

Agreed. You could even number tracks with 001, 002,... giving you track lists with 999 possible entries.
Btw: I used this numbering system in order to have my own added radio stations right at the beginning of the list. I had to refine it to 0.001 Blablaradio, 0.002 Radioagaga, ... since a lot of radio station names start with a "1".
