Use ratings and playlists on Android?

[Modinstaller]

Hello everyone,

I'm using Musicolet to play music on my phone. Musicolet does not read MusicBee's ratings. It's also very annoying to import playlists through Musicolet, I gotta do it manually playlist by playlist.

I tried Gonemad which reads ratings and imports playlist easily enough, but I find it ugly, clunky, and I don't like it. Ideally I'd like to stay on Musicolet, or some other similar music player.

I thought about renaming my music files with their rating, something like "[4.5] Wolfmother - White Unicorn", this way Musicolet can sort by name. The playlist problem remains, and also I couldn't do this manually, I'd have to create a script that would read the rating and modify the filename accordingly and parse through all my playlist. And I'd have to run the script every time I change my song ratings through MusicBee. And MusicBee wouldn't understand where the files had gone which would fuck my m3u playlists up, unless I found a way to just change something in their metadata instead of renaming them (something that Musicolet could use).

Is there possibly an android app which can do what I want it to, or a trick that I could use to make it work with Musicolet?

Thanks!

I use GoneMad and it does what I want it to do. PowerAmp is the only other Android player that works with MB's WiFi Sync app, so I suggest you get the seven day trial and see if it does what you want.

I started using Poweramp as a replacement to Gonemad, I like it, it looks pretty and I like the functionality. I'm running into 2 problems though:

- I can sort by rating but I can't see the ratings and if I rate any song, it uses another rating tag than Musibee's instead of rewriting over Musicbee's rating.
- I haven't found a way to auto-sort everything by rating so I still have to manually press settings, re-sort, and rating, every time I want to play another playlist.

I'll make a post on Poweramp's forums.
