Aaron Caldwell Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 I recently imported playlists + ratings to my new phone (Ultra 22). Now every track in my collection shows a thumbs up. I did a Full Rescan and same problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Caldwell Posted September 2, 2022 Author Share Posted September 2, 2022 Is there a way to reset these likes / dislikes so I can just start over? I did a backup of the playlists/rating so maybe their still a way to fix this? The files were on an SD card and now they are internal (on the new phone). Perhaps this caused the problem.

Aaron Caldwell Posted September 6, 2022 Author Share Posted September 6, 2022 @andrewilley Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Did you bring the ratings back in via a master exported playlist rather than using the Export/Import Settings/Data feature? Exported playlists should contain lines of the format: #EXT-X-RATING: n where n is the saved rating value between 1 and 5 stars (or 0 for no rating). If you use the Thumb display system, 1 star would be shown as a thumb-down, while 5-stars would be a thumb-up. The values are still kept as proper stars ratings internally, thumbs is just an alternate display option. Andre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Caldwell Posted September 8, 2022 Author Share Posted September 8, 2022 I believe I chose the export feature and import feature. The playlists are fine. Its all the songs NOT on the playlists which all have a thumbs up for some reason. Is there a method you can think to get these all back to zero or no rating. Thanks for your help.

flyingdutchman Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 @Aaron Caldwell my app Music Playlist Manager has an option to zero all tracks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Caldwell Posted September 8, 2022 Author Share Posted September 8, 2022 Thanks. I want to zero them out in my library..not in playlists. So with this app, I could create a playlist with every track in library...zero them out...will they then appear zeroed out in library?

flyingdutchman Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 @Aaron Caldwell no need, just select the option. It will zap every track to 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Caldwell Posted September 8, 2022 Author Share Posted September 8, 2022 Thanks . I got the app. I clicked "TAGS and RATINGS" === "RESET all Poweramp ratings. I don't see any changes as of yet. I have 24,000 songs, so maybe it will take a long time? Full rescan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingdutchman Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 @Aaron Caldwell it will just work through all tracks and set the ratings to zero. You can check progress in Criteria, Ratings. This shows a breakdown of all of your ratings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Caldwell Posted September 8, 2022 Author Share Posted September 8, 2022 It seems to have stopped. I hit refresh and then I do the command to reset all songs to zero. Do I need to check the box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingdutchman Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 @Aaron Caldwell no, this screen should show changes each time you load it. The process runs in the background. Once you set it going, just leave it for a while,it will work through your music collection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Caldwell Posted September 8, 2022 Author Share Posted September 8, 2022 Still no change. It appears to have changed all songs beginning A-G. There is a notification from Music Playlist Manager that reads "update process" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Caldwell Posted September 21, 2022 Author Share Posted September 21, 2022 Update. The music playlist manager worked at reseting all of my ratings. Very useful app that did what I needed and tech support was great. I started to apply thumbs up to all my songs on playlists again and eventually all songs in my entire collection have a thumbs up again. Weird glitch that myself and a few others have experienced.

andrewilley Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 @Aaron Caldwell Have you been doing further importing of playlists, or do all songs just suddenly change to Thumbs Up? What is the real saved rating value if you set PA to using normal 0-5 stars rather than thumbs? Andre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
