It only works on unrated tracks. The full turn of events was:

I scanned (to get my test tracks in actually)
I noticed that a new album was rated 4 stars for every song
Looking back at iTunes only one song was rated in that album
I noticed my 'use album rating' box was checked

Since then I have rated all songs in that album. My overnight scan
transferred these ratings to the album, including the songs within that
album with problem characters in! However, I still have tracks with no
ratings in SC. These are ones that are rated in iTunes but have the
problem characters in eg Gravity's Rainbow.

That would be most appreciated. If you want my test files (abcdef) I
can upload to my server and email/PM you the links, just say.

I also did a couple more investigatory things. On problematic files
(abcdef', abcdef[] and abcdef&) I rating then all as 1 star in SC using
TrackStat. I then rated then as 4 stars in iTunes. Each night I do a
complete rescan and I want to see if having then as rated in SC allowed
then to update with the iTunes rating, it didn't. This morning the three
files are still rated as 1 star.

Again, I'm not sure if that helps, but I thought it might point the
finger at something!

Thanks for all your help so far
