Displaying half-star ratings

[DanielB]

BubbleUPnP isn't a controller just for MinimServer is it?

Controller developer would/should use the "standard" mapping for both MP3 (Jriver mapping?) and FLAC (20=1, 40=2 etc), but that wouldn't work for MinimSever with MP3s.

If controller was developed to the standard, I could use tagUpdate to change MinimServer rating back to the standard e.g. 2 = 64, 3 = 128.

Rather than just ask developer to "add ratings" I'm trying to be helpful and propose a route to solution that would account for the products I'm aware of.

I know MP3 could use all of 1-255 but in products I've tested it's 1, 64, 128, 196 and 255 (ignoring half stars for now), so adding in MinimServer would produce:
1 = 1
2,64 = 2
3,128 = 3
4,196 = 4
5,255 = 5

Adding in FLAC leaves table proposed earlier, and because there's no overlap controller wouldn't need to worry about checking format.


Or they could use Jriver mapping with MinimServer included for MP3 and other lookup for FLAC:
1-51 -> RATING 1
2, 52-102 -> RATING 2
3, 103-153 -> RATING 3
4, 154-204 -> RATING 4
5, 205-255 -> RATING 5

Does that make sense?
