My mood rating doesn't accept '2' values for some reason. I can enter values of 3 and 1 and it works fine. But if I enter a 2 the field will appear blank. It doesn't appear in searches, my columnui display, or trackmod info. It has never worked correctly for me it's not like it just stopped working. This blank also differs from a missing value because in my columnui if the value is missing it will appear '?' but this is coming in as blank. Any ideas?

How are people using mood? is there a plugin or are you just tagging the files?

I don't know but I installed custominfo and I added a couple of menu options to select mood values. I believe these are simply tags. Does what I want it to except for the aforementioned problem.

How to set your RATINGS, MOODS, etc...:

Script for a column in ColumnUI.
So create a column named Rating and type this code in the Display tab
$if(%rating%,$repeat('●',%rating%), )
...and this code in the Sort tab:
%rating%$num(%_hotness%,3)$num(%play_counter%,2)
Instead of the bullet character U can use whatever U want.

Than, right-click a song > Tagging > Manage scripts
Here press ADD > SET VALUE
Here on Field Name type RATING and on Field Value type 1
Then save it as Rating 1
Repet this operation for Rating 2, 3, 4 and 5

You will find the scripts when U right-click a song and look for the menu Scripts

Hey thanks for the useful code. my foobar setup is improving with every new code line! wish i could fix the missing 2 values though... When I access my 'Tagging' context menu I don't see a 'Manage scripts' option. What do I need to load to see that option?

You probably did not install the masstagger plugin with your foobar installation. Just reinstall foobar in the same directory and make sure to check the masstagger plugin. Maybe backup your foobar config beforehand, although that should not be needed.

I found the missing value problem and it was a dumb mistake. I left the value blank in the configuration so it was giving blank values.
