Description of the bug
After upgrading to 10.11.0, sorting a library that is large enough to span multiple pages sorts only the current page.
What looks like is happening (with sort by Date Added as the example) is that pagination and sorting is happening out of order, so the library is paginated based on the original library order (alphabetical) and the sort is then being applied to the current page. The result is that each page has an alphabetically correct set of content i.e. page 1 has videos all starting with the letter "A", but the order is based on the Date Added for each item on that page instead of across the entire library.
Choosing Ascending or Descending reorders the current page, but doesn't bring in any items from the rest of the library.
My library has a few thousand videos, I can't confirm if this happens on smaller libraries.
Reproduction steps
What is the current bug behavior?
Each individual page is sorted instead of the entire paginated library.
What is the expected correct behavior?
Sort should sort the entire library, not just the current page.

Same issue here. Groups of 400, 100+, 1000+ does the same thing.

Same issue here.

@farces This bug happens when you enable Group movies into collections from Dashboard -> Libraries -> Display.
Can you confirm that if you have this option enabled, and if you do, does disabling produce the correct behavior in the library? Also, can you confirm what type of library you are referring to?
@CVLover commented on GitHub (Oct 24, 2025):
Same issue for me.
@farces commented on GitHub (Oct 26, 2025):
I checked and this option isn't enabled. The library type shows as Other, but has configuration for metadata downloaders for both movies and episodes, so I think it's likely the "Mixed Movies and Shows" type.
Would the referenced PR fix this as well?

Fixed by #15187

Just posting to confirm that 10.11.1 resolved this for me, regardless of not having the "Group movies into collections" option enabled. Thanks for the quick turnaround!
