Columns UI - One colum does't show anything.

2018-02-05 21:32:44

Hi,

I have a field %rating%.
In Preferences - Advanced - Display - Properties dialog - Standard fields I have Rating=RATING.
In Preferences - Columns UI - Playlist view - Columns the column field is named "Rating", under the tab "Display" I wrote %rating%.
When I look in the properties of my mp3-files I can see that the field "Rating" is correctly filled with numbers.

In my opinion everything should be o.k.
But the column "Rating" in the columns playlist doesn't show anything.

What can be the problem / solution here?


Edit:
Changed colums to columns. Thank you for the hint, Ivqcl.

Nothing sticks out as being incorrectly configured from your description. Perhaps some screenshots will help?

Using the component foo_playcount/Playback Statistics by any chance? Try using $meta(rating) instead and see if that helps.

Thank you very much, Daeron!

$meta(rating) works.

Yes, I have foo_playcount (3.0.2) installed.

What might be the reason why I have to use the $meta(rating) function here instead of %rating%?
In all other columns I can use %fieldname% without problems.
