I know they worked differently but I might remember it wrong, it might
not have been 0-255 vs 0-100, it might have been that they used the
0-255 range differently.
I've the following section in the "Rating Tag" scanning module code to
make both compatible with the rating range used by the TrackStat plugin
($c is the POPM numeric value):
Code:
--------------------
if($emailText =~ /Windows Media Player/) {
$ratingNumber = floor($c*100/255);
$ratingNumber = floor(20+$ratingNumber*80/100);
}else {
$ratingNumber = floor($c*100/255);
}
--------------------
As you can see, there are different conversions for WMP and other
applications.
TrackStat uses the following rating range when displaying 5 star
ratings based on the 0-100 value in SqueezeCenter database:
0-9 -> 0
10-29 -> 1
30-49 -> 2
50-69 -> 3
70-89 -> 4
90-100 -> 5
Standard SqueezeCenter always displays the ratings as x/100, it never
displays them as 0-5 or 0-10 stars.
Of course, whenever they decide to implement enhancement #142 they are
also going to have to display them as stars because letting the user
set ratings in a range of 0-100 will not work IMHO, stars is a must if
you allow users to manually set ratings
