Support of them is spotty and inconsistent across players (which tag to use (e.g. not all use POPM (which is for MP3 only, FLAC uses a different one)), and even if they agree on the tag, the semantics of the tags are not standardized (e.g. POPM has a range of 1-255, so it is up to the player to map ranges to "stars" etc. LMS uses 0-100, so 0-20=* etc.)) The first thing to do would be therefore to check how the target player handles this (if it supports it at all - most don't)

Ratings are built into LMS, so it's rather simple to export them directly from the LMS database using any SQLite tool. Robbyell wrote: > > Welcome other suggestions! A simple solution is to create a playlist in LMS containing all >= **** tracks (e.g. using the SQL playlist plugin (which supports this out of the box), or extgui4lms / LMS Playlist Editor (using a custom search)), and copy the file to the target device (that's what I do for both my phone and car) SW: 'Web UI for LMS' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?98186-Announce-Alternative-Web-Interface-(beta)) | 'Playlist Editor / Generator' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?108199-Announce-LMS-Playlist-Editor) | 'Music Classification' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?108278-Announce-Essentia-Integration-music-classification-(moods-genres-)) | 'Similar Music' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?108495-Announce-LMSmusly-play-similar-music) | 'LMSlib2go' (https://www.nexus0.net/pub/sw/lmslib2go/) HowTos: 'build a self-contained LMS' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?99648-Howto-build-a-self-contained-LMS) | 'Ogg Opus' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?107011-Howto-play-Ogg-Opus-files) | 'Bluetooth/ALSA' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?107230-Howto-Bluetooth-streaming-to-from-LMS-(ALSA-only-no-PulseAudio)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Roland0's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=56808 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108896 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
