Rating in LMS and Ratings Light is only about rating tracks that part of your LMS library (local and online, RL FAQ for more details). I've never considered syncing track ratings to online services, and I don't think I will. Most of them, as you saw, now use some kind of binary like/heart system, and I prefer the 5-star scale. The most important reason is simply that I would not have the time to keep RL compatible with possible (API) changes of the various -music streaming providers- and other -online- services in the long run, even if they supported 5-star ratings.

Unfortunately, there is no universal rating tag supported by all music file formats across different music players. Otherwise, LMS (and RL) would import and use this already. Yes, you have the POPM tag for ID3-tagged music files like mp3 or wav. But already with mp4/aac/alac and flac it starts to get problematic because there are no universally accepted tag names for ratings. So if you want to store your rating values in your music files, you have to choose a tag field that you don't use otherwise and one that is *scanned and imported by LMS*. Ratings Light does not and will not include a file scanner (like CustomTag). RL reads rating values from file tags that have been scanned and imported by LMS and that are therefore already part of the LMS database. You can make RL search the BPM tag or comment tag of your tracks *in the LMS database* and convert BPM values or keywords in the comment tags into rating values. *Plugin repositories:* 'Ratings Light FAQ' (https://github.com/AF-1/lms-ratingslight) 'Visual Statistics' (https://github.com/AF-1/lms-visualstatistics) 'Dynamic Playlists 3 FAQ' (https://github.com/AF-1/lms-dynamicplaylists#faq) 'Use Comment Tag Info' (https://github.com/AF-1/lms-usecommenttaginfo) 'Custom Skip 3 FAQ' (https://github.com/AF-1/lms-customskip#faq) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ AF1's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=39306 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113344
