Okay, I think I understand all that, but still have some questions ;) I guess I need to just suck it and see!
I think I should export iTunes stats -> SlimServer, then SlimServer->iTunes. I should then use iTunesUpdate to automatically pass SlimServer stats updates to iTunes. I can then occasionally import iTunes stats back into SlimServer if desired. Does iTunesUpdate plugin recognise TrackStat info (star rating, last played time and playcount)? One other issue I have (generally an iTunes issue), is that I have to add new files to the iTunes library. i.e. I have my iTunes library folder outside of my SlimServer music folder path, so that any downloaded protected iTunes music store files will not be seen by SlimServer. So after any changes to my music library, such as ripping new music, changing file names, etc, I have to "Add folder..." in iTunes to load the whole folder again. iTunes will scan the whole folder, and leave old removed items in the iTunes library (I can't find a way to prune these from the library). So, do I have to manually update iTunes library before using any SlimServer->iTunes sync, or does iTunes hold ratings info in some xml file irrespective of whether the music files are in its library? If so, it would be good for a slimserver rescan to somehow update the iTunes library (add new files, remove deleted files) whilst/after the slimserver rescan is running/finished.
