Title: Albums average rating as a standard library field
Post by: Humbledore on December 22, 2013, 04:36:44 pm

Hi,
wouldn't it be good to add 'Average Album Rating' as a standard library field in MC? I think that! :-)
Now I can't find an easy and correct way to sort my albums on the average rating value.
Thanks!

I can see an album rating as a field and a song rating as a field but a standard average album rating ?

euh well the simple way .... create a new field and rate the album selecting all tracks   :P

but probably what you want (?) is that jriver takes all of your ratings per song and averages this for you?! Well I think you could create a user "expression field"  for the math http://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Expression_Language#Math.28.E2.80.A6.29:_Evaluates_a_given_mathematical_formula (http://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Expression_Language#Math.28.E2.80.A6.29:_Evaluates_a_given_mathematical_formula) and loading it as a variable maybe with the new stacking function ? (not really sure how to use this yet  :o) good luck  ;D

Not a standard field, but it can be done.  Here's one way:  http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=72049.0
