Thank you for providing a very useful tool. I have been looking for a way to use exported ratings in a Windows tagging program like MP3Tag or Mediamonkey for a long time. The exported text files,however, have UNIX paths which these programs cannot handle. Playlists saved from LMS running on

I just discovered from this old post in MP3Tag forums that it is possible to add to the inbuilt tags in MusicIP. https://community.mp3tag.de/t/how-to-get-bpm-tory-tlan-into-musicip-mixer-using-mp3tag/7314 It would be very helpful to use tags like MOOD and OCCASION to create some filters in MIP.

After experimenting for many weeks, this is how I tweak Sugarcube. Hope it saves someone some effort. -Trackstat plugin for play counts and dynamic ratings -Custom Scan plugin for MusicIP export. This is not needed by sugarcube but helps make static playlists, for whatever purpose, using MusicIP
