Right click, Show Ratings. Great feature. Rate the song while you browse other content. BUT: what about those of us who use custom rating fields? This is needed if more than one person wants to store a rating and you don't want to completely rely on the MC database.
Can any 5-star fields show up under Ratings?
Show Ratings
Show Ben's Rating
....
Hopefully a person wouldn't have more than 4 or 5 max here but even if they did, the list is so short that it probably wouldn't matter. The key is to have the editable stars rather than an integer read-only output of rating (which is possible already).
Does this make sense? Would be very helpful for me! How many others use a custom rating field?
-
I'd like to use one custom rating field, but I do not because I'm not able to set this custom rating into the Playback Info Area. Without this ability it's worthless for me using more than one rating field :(
Another question is: MC has the option to share ratings. Should MC share all our custom ratings then or only the standard rating field?
-
I think MC should detect what fields are 5-star rating fields. Now that they have that option, it is easy! I just don't like it when I use another generic playback program that doesn't allow custom fields.
Still not sure why with the new 5-star field why it couldn't be setup to allow for an arbitrary number of stars (1 to 10 perhaps?)
