Author Topic: How to delete (set to unrated) all song ratings in entire library?  (Read 1225 times)

I am a new user to MC19, and recently completed the tedious task of ripping all my CDs onto my server and into MC19.  The song ratings are a mess -- from some CDs there are no ratings, from other CDs ratings of 2 stars for every song, or 4 stars for every song, etc....

What is the easiest way to make every song in my library unrated?  I'm hoping that there is a Library Command I have yet to find to do so, and that I will not have to do this manually artist by artist or album by album. 

Thanks in advance for your help.

One way....in Standard View, select all (artists, albums, etc.) using contol-a, right click, tag. In the tag panel either right click/show all tags or right click/also show, and check ratings. I believe what you want is "? stars" for unrated.

Change the ratings for all. It may take a few minutes to tag all files if you have a large number, but it goes quickly, and progress will show at the bottom of the screen. If you have any failures it may be due to the file properties or permissions.
