Auto calculate album rating - Not working

[markwilliamsweb]

Sorry if this has already been noted, I couldn't find it anywhere.

The Auto calculate album rating doesn't seem to be working anymore. I have Album Rating selected in the Album and Track Layout options, but when changing the track ratings it doesn't affect the rating.

I have version 3.0.5995 and the theme is DarkRED Flat.

Thanks,
Mark

Many thanks Steven, but I am still having the same issue. It works after restart but doesn't update immediately. I am also getting half stars when the 'Disable half ratings' box is checked.

if you are using the Album and Tracks layout with the rating by the picture then that should be fixed if you redownload the same link

I didn't want to make a new topic because I have the same problem.

Some albums it auto calculates, some do not.  I tried rescanning the files and closing the program.  No change.

Hi Steven not sure if you ever saw this topic. I tried the most recent beta and this still hasn't fixed the issue.

Same problem here. The automatic album rating always get the same as of its first track only. I expected something more sophisticated, something like an average calculation that takes the length of each rated track into consideration so that a long track (say 30 minutes) weights more than the rating of shorter tracks. Anyway, it doesn't seem to work whatsoever.

Still working fine here. Can you post a screenshot so i can see your layout and also indicate how you set the rating eg. click in the main panel

edit:
actually can you send me a link to your settings file (help/ support/ view settings) but still indicate where and how you set the track rating

You can download my settings-file from my server at:
www.raverian.com/album/MusicBeeSettings.xml

Screenshot (see how album rating is 2.5 star while, for the sake of the test, all tracks except the first are all five stars):

[Steven]

according to your settings you are displaying the track rating not the album rating

Aha..! - A bit embarrassing, yes. I adjusted the setting and now it is fine. Thanks!
