FAQ

Why not beet rating?

It turns out that the mpdstats plugin was already maintaining a rating attribute. It seemed easier to just adopt the userrating nomenclature.

What are the differences with Michael Alan Dorman repository ?

Major changes are:

  • added support for WMA
  • added a test suite
  • add notion of scaler to be able to adapt value for any players
  • add an import function (you can import rating on existing item of the library)

Players supported

Players that are supported when importing ratings :

Player mp3 wma flac
Windows Media Player 9+ X
