Bomb rating is now available as an addon: https://www.mediamonkey.com/addons/brow ... b-ratings/
Please note that it requires MediaMonkey 5.0.3+.

Hello Drakinite,

thanks for this change. This corresponds to old habits.
I tested with the skins:
DarkMonkey 1.0.2
Materials Design 1.0.0
Material Design (Kn) 1.0
Metro M (Classic) 1.0.0
Metro M (Kn) 1.0
Monkey Groove 1.0.0

For me there are two inconsistencies with all skins:

The BOMB is missing in the "column filter"

Image

In the "Auto-Playlist" area, the display is given as a NUMBER.

Perhaps you could correct these blemishes.
Many Thanks
MMW 4.1.31.1919 Gold-Standardinstallation

Hi drakinite,
thanks a lot for this new old feature! ;-)
I'm still in standby mode on MM5 for more than one year, in order to avoid to a series of disadvantages compared to MM4. But your new addon brings me closer to the jump to MM5. :D

Hi Erwin,

Thanks for the report. I've fixed the issue with the column filter (available as version 1.0.1) but unfortunately it won't be feasible to change "0 stars" to "Bomb" in the Auto-Playlist filter dropdown. The text is controlled by native objects and not JS, so it would require a lot of changes & risk breaking many things. Sorry; I hope it's not too big an annoyance.

Re. Peke's report about the My Rating menu: Tracked as https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=19531, currently a low priority because this would also require some more complex changes (though more feasible than the Auto-Playlist filter)

No problem! If you don't mind me asking, what else is keeping you from MM5? I don't see you having posted in any of the addon request/must-have threads that I'm following.

Ha, ha, it wasn't clear to me that it's possible to implement bombs via an addon. :)

I do not remember all details that stopped me from using "unfinished" MM5. Perhaps now it's a good time to try it again.

I concur - I want the bomb rating back! All of my tracks are rated from half a star to 5 stars. No stars are for tracks I have yet to rate. The bomb rating I used for duplicates or different versions of the same track - so only one version would have the rating. Without the bomb rating I will have to change my other ratings - such a pain.

Not sure I understand, Bomb rating is back when you install addon. Only thing that is missing is My Rating representation of bomb icon in Context menu and we will address that in future version of MM5 because at current dev cycle state it is too risky to introduce delay of official release of version 5.0.4.

I also tested Bomb Rating is also shown in rating column when you drag mouse. Can you please elaborate what you arte missing.
