Song ratings missing

<< < (2/3) > >>

zxsix:
Ok.  I restored my MC 11 library into MC 12.
Now I see the ratings.

So now I'm interested in having MC store the rating in the tags.
Tools > Options >Library > Standard Library Fields
Rating field has "store in file tags" checked with an X.

Right clicked a song.
Chose Library Tools > Update tags from library
Information window pops up and says 1 file updated (0 failures).

Here's the tags.  Still not seeing MC's comment tags    ?

Alex B:
As a test, try to remove all tags before updating the tags (Library Tools > Remove Tags). Use a duplicate file so that the original is preserved (Matt may want to have a sample).

zxsix:
Ok, removed all tags as suggested.
followed by update tags from library.
here's the result:

Alex B:
Rather odd. Did you try this with MC11.1 or MC12?

Seems like MC cannot write its proprietary tags to the file. Do you have the standard Comment field set up as writable? I think that is needed for the other MC specific "COMM" fields.

Can MC change any of the standard tags (Artist, Album, etc)?

zxsix:
Thanks Alex B!
It turns out the Comment field did not have the store in file tags checked.
I fixed that, then did a "update tags from library".
Didn't even think to look at that one since there was a separate one for the rating field.

Configuration issue, not a bug.
Case closed.
