[QUOTE="kiwijunglist, post: 537430, member: 76888"] Ideas: (In order of importance to me) [B]1. Store MP rating within mp3 file[/B] If you synch your music collection with another media player then that media player can share MP's ratings. If you move/copy/rename your music files, or if you reinstall mediaportal you won't loose all your MP ratings. AFAIK - There are currently two methods for writing rating into the ID3tag (WMP and itunes use different system), mediaportal should write to both. The watch music share directory should monitor the rating within the ID3tag, if the rating changes. ie previously WMP=3,iTunes=3 becomes WMP=3,iTunes=5 then MP should update rating to 5 in both tags, because obviously 5 is the new rating implemented by another media player (eg your ipod) [B]2. Better tag support for skin:[/B] When browsing by database view, then need the following tags #selected.artist , #selected.albumartist, #selected.album, #selected.thumb This will allow full fan art support, currently you can't show the currently selected album artist fanart when you read the album sub level [B]3. Music Video integration:[/B] Link an mp3 file with matching music video file. Option in MP Config to automatically play music video instead of mp3 file when track with matching video comes up in the playlist and you are currently viewing nowplaying window. When music video has played it goes back to next track in the playlist. [B]4. Mediaportal should support usb mp3 player.[/B] Option to copy playlist to usb device. Option to copy all tracks >X star ratings to usb device. This would have to be basic support for basic usb mp3 player devices. [/QUOTE]
