Format value of playback statistics field with masstagger?

Is it possible to format the value of the "rating" field of the playback statistics
taking the value from a tag in the file?

With masstagger too, to do it in batches?

Thanks.

Hi there,

Use $meta(rating) to access rating field in tags.

The value is usually only 1-5 though. Typically you would rather format that in a playlist column, using for example -

Code: [Select]
$pad($repeat(★,$meta(rating)),5,☆)

- to display as stars or whatever you like.

Cheers

Thank you for yout reply.

I knew about using $meta(rating) to access the values in tags but my need is the opposite,
I would like to copy the value FROM playback statistics %rating% field INTO $meta(rating)
but I don't know how to tell masstagger "format value from other fields" to write into $meta(rating).

Edit:
As I was writing my reply, I thought to try to format the value from %rating% to RATING and... it works!
Sorry if I didn't try it before but I thought it didn't make sense.

Thank you.
