[QUOTE="emphatic, post: 548262, member: 24365"] Ideally, the plugin would only show the MP rating in the GUI, and adapt the correct rating type automatically for the device in question (if you have setup the plugin to include ratings for external devices), so that no incompatibilities arise within the external device's database architecture. For most "unlocked" devices (i.e. not made by Apple) this sounds plausible, I'll bring it up with the programmers... Hope you agree with this? One of the most important things about the plugin is usability in the GUI, so this is of course very important to the plugin team as well. Interesting. We'll just have to see if this can be done (accepted by BASS player). Lyrics will have it's own database field, so that should be a skinning decision as all of the database fields *will* be available to skinners. Don't know if this is something a plugin will be able to change. I think this is more of a core MediaPortal player question. See above answer. Being "one of those people" with some music tagged incorrectly (I have now tagged all my music the best I can, but STILL get discrepancies in MediaPortal) I have to disagree. As the plugin won't display data lifted from ID3 tags, but gathered from API databases ID3 tags will only be used to correctly identify the music on an album/release level. Having warning flags in your beautiful Media PC GUI isn't very pretty, and is not what we wish for. You will however get a pop-up when a mis-match is found so that you directly can: View the folder/file name of the album to be imported and select a fitting artist/album from a list in the GUI. You can then (optionally) write the ID3 with this updated data, when you are 100% sure that it's the correct information. I have music that I've ripped years ago, and I shouldn't have to be PUNISHED for not ripping it with the latest software. :D Emph [/QUOTE]
