 It can be very hard to use the current sort order for the content items
 over UPNP especially if you have large numbers of a title and don't know
 the exact date of the recording.

 This patch adds logical folders for date sorted versions of the listings
 by title and it also applies a subtitle sort to the non-date sorted title
 list to help where you know the particular episode that you want.

 I have tested these changes on Ubuntu Precise but have not built from the
 Git source. I think that this is a very low risk change.

 I understand if the design choices you make do not want to offer all these
 choices but as a heavy UPNP user I would strongly request that you do make
 a user obvious sort apply to the title grouped content (and I suggest by
 date). I also understand if you need to change the names, especially if
 internationalisation is required but I wanted to offer this upstream
 anyway.
