Problem
When downloading an album that is made up of multiple discs, the track numbering reflects only the numbers within each disc. So, for instance, the first tracks of the first and second discs would both be numbered '1', therefore appearing one after the other in the file succession of the downloaded folder.
It should be noted that the tracks appear in the correct order when viewing the album from the website.

Solution
Rename the downloaded files with consecutive numbers to reflect the order of appearance in the album -- or simply the order of downloading.

Sample album to reproduce issue
https://tidal.com/album/134170196

At the present moment this problem is very annoying because it means whenever a longer album is downloaded, tracks have to be moved/renamed manually.

They are now named like this (01-01). Would that be ok?
