Save playcounts/ratings to song counts "when possible"
-
@jonas please could you explain what this means?
I've been going through playlists deliberately tagging untagged files for ratings, which should also have been populating the playcounts. I've never manually clicked that "save playcounts now" deep menu button until now, and it seemed to process a huge amount of stuff in the background.
Is there a way to force writing after each song is finished?
Am I right in presuming that the last two items mean that any tracks that are moved or altered outside of strawberry, without first saving to tags, would be those tag saves get overwritten?
Currently there are loads of files I'm 99% sure I rated and have definitely listened to.
Would be v keen to know how it's possible to ensure everything is saved to files asap.
Cheers!

@jonas ditto sorry to bump but I'd love to find out how this works under the hood, and therefore whether I should change the last two of these settings, and/or should be clicking the button every time I close Strawberry. If these metadata aren't being saved to files in a timely manner then I propose this is a bug or at least a potential point for improvement. Thanks.

@jonas Hi Jonas, any thoughts about this bud? Strawberry definitely isn't saving playcounts and ratings to song tags and they're being lost, which is frustrating because I've been deliberately listening to and ratings tracks, only for many of those ratings to be lost. Cheers for any info you can share, hopefully this will reveal some underlying behaviour which might be possible to improve so the functionality improves. Thanks!
