Title: How to Heart/Love Songs through Poweramp and syncing it to MusicBee?
Post by: PuraIgnis on January 15, 2025, 06:53:15 AM

I have a very long playlist of Hearted/Loved songs from MusicBee. I was able to sync and export the playlist to my mobile devices. Lately, I do not feel like turning on my laptop to Heart songs, which turned my playlist into a mess(I Hearted/Loved/Transferred some Poweramp songs the Playlist, but it wasn't syncing back to MusicBee). I am not sure if I am explaining it properly so please understand.

What I want:
Add songs to a playlist from Poweramp > sync to laptop and automatically Hearted > reversed is applicable

Please let me know if this is possible or not.

Performing a wired sync with Musicbee just transfers files. It should sync ratings and playcounts to the device (by overwriting the files I believe) but it doesn't do any reverse syncing.

The Musicbee wifi app will reverse sync ratings and playcounts for poweramp. There is a thread in the portable devices section of the forum that should give you some more info.

@BoringName, OP is asking for reverse syncing of track 'love' status. i guess this is impossible.

Yeah you're right, I was getting mixed up with something else. The wifi app doesn't reverse sync the "love" tag. It only syncs star ratings. You could list it as a feature request in the wifi thread as Kimt1688 is currently maintaining a Play Store version of the app and may be able to add that functionality.

As a work around if the OP is currently not using ratings, they could set all the songs they "love" to 5 stars and use that as a way to "love" songs. 5 stars - loved, zero stars - not loved.
