Thread: FrodoPlayer + mp3 ratings + IGuidance v3

Hey guys. One of the cool things about the iPod is that you can flag a song as having 1-5 stars. Then you can create a Smart Playlist that plays songs based on multiple criteria, but, I can have it play ones with >3 stars, with more frequency based on the 5 stars. Is this possible in FP?

I'd like to have the ability to have 5 buttons in the GUI corresponding to the 5 stars you can give a song. So that if you like the song while driving, you can instantly classify it. Then I'd like to be able to play songs based on >x number of stars.

I use FP in my Carputer of course, but I also have it replicating with my main computer in the house via Wifi. Would there be a way to have WinAmp also use these ratings for its playback?

I haven't seen any way to store ratings in the ID3 tags other than using a proprietary format in the comments tags. If this is the case, then I'd rather it also work with iTunes since I use that for my iPod. Nirvana would be getting the iPod, Winamp, and FrodoPlayer somewhat in sync.

Lastly, the new iGuidance is almost out!
