Quod Libet doesn't see id3 info written by foobar2k, mp3tag, jaikoz?

In my case I am coming from a combination of foobar2000/jaikoz/mp3tag on primarily mp3/flac/ogg files and they seemed to work fairly well with each other on the diff formats in terms of understanding metadata that each other wrote.
I installed lq and compared to just about all the other players (available for linux, still doesn't compare to fb2k...) out there I quite like it but there will certainly be a learning curve.
First thing is ratings I guess. All my music, which I have ratings mostly 3, 4, and 5 are showing up as either 0 or 5 nothing else. Actually all my FLAC and ogg files are showing up as 5 star and mp3/aac files as 0 start. I am pretty much positive that a fair number of the ones marked as 5 star are not correct (I would never have marked as 5) so I am a bit stumped. Also moods and various other info are not showing up, artist, album, title yes all seem correct, everything else I tagged on win using foobar2000/jaikoz/mp3tag no... is there anyway to work around this?
I tried posting to the ql github issues page but got no response, I did find this post but to be honst its a bit too tech for me to understand.
Thoughts? Please.

It's Quod Libet's fault and needs fixing there (I am a maintainer..)
