I always assumed 1 was best (as in #1 in the charts), but I was just showing a friend my system, and he thought it was the other way around - is there common agreement on this?
-
In my opinion rating is about giving points
In that case 5 would be the highest points to give
And in that case would be best rated

lets pretend for a moment your a man and you see this hot looking babe.
your driving in a car in calf and you have your mr. microphone with you.
this nice looking babe is walking down the sidewalk and you say. "hey babe your hot, from 1 to 5 i give you a 1 and i will be back to pick you up later"
select an answer:
a. she will be waiting for you and it will be a hot date
b she will be waiting for you but only to slap you

OK, OK! ;D
By popular demand, I will change my ratings so that 5 is best. Does MC9 have some sort of "search & replace" function for this?

KingSparta is very pedagogic sometimes !

I used to use 5 for the best (as in 5 stars), but then I changed to 1, for #1 hits. But then I changed back to 5, for the simple reason that sorting by rating column could at least get all my #5s to the top of the list, whereas the #1s are always preceeded by all the empty rating fields.
You can use the global replace (File Properties Tools | Library Info | Find & Replace, select Rating in the left hand column, and enter the numbers in the right) but I wouldn't, because once you've replaced all your 1s with 5s, and 2s with 4s, how are you then going to change your OLD 5s for 1s? I would just sort the entire database by the Rating Column, and manually select them by number. That way you keep track of which are new and old numbers. There may be an easier way...

Luckily I haven't bothered rating anything 4 or 5 (ie the two lowest ratings in my old scale), so find & replace will work fine for me!

May be:
select all songs
copy 'rating' field to another unused field, let say 'composer' for all
do a filter to display all songs such as 'composer'=1
select all them
set 'rating'=5 for the selection
do a filter to display all songs such as 'composer'=2
select all them
set 'rating'=4 for the selection
do a filter to display all songs such as 'composer'=4
select them
set 'rating'=2 for the selection
do a filter to display all songs such as 'composer'=5
select them
set 'rating'=1 for the selection
:D
