Ratings plugin

check in the temp folder for temp.m3u. The only way i could remove a line from the m3u file was to back up the .m3u to temp, delete the original, then recreate the .m3u with the song erased. if temp m3u isnt there i messed somethin up friday and will have to get back to work on it.

same problem here, when changing rating of a song, i get the entire playlist deleted.

Just to verify, you are right there is no temp.m3u

I had to do something very similar in my skin to append songs to a current playlist, so I know the whole having to save to a temp file and all all to well

My code won't help you though, as it is in VBScript, and executed with the Wscript command.

rate track 02 as 3 stars, its written to 3 stars.m3u and the contents of all other m3u files are cleared.

if i manually edit the m3u files with the songs that should be under that rating, everything works perfect, till i rate another song.

i'm having the exact same problem when using "ratings" altrough i use the lsxvoid 2.0 skin.

New version posted. This should eliminate the rating bug that deleted playlist on rate change. I also updated the documentation. I also updated the skins and the launch code in the readme. Check post 1

thats something that was fixed bakc in october. make sure ur using today's version and today's skins. Also make sure ur launch button is as it reads in the read me.

thanks, i updated the skins files with the archive i found in post#1.

the launch button is already set in lsxvoid2.0.

my playlist folder is D:\MP3\Playlists

now i if rate a song 3 stars, there's a "TEST" popup with the number 3, i press OK, and then i only get D: in "2 satrs.m3u"

thats odd.. you shouldnt be getting test lines as thast just debug code thats commented out.. gonna have to try somethin else i guess. Please make sure ur skin and launch code match the NEW stuff in the readme and i'll try to make other adjustments.
