yes, no :-) your plugin is great and i've discovered your recommendation
already (choose min rating....) from above. I've also modified the
rating numbers (5 max eg 100) but i've still have some odd situations,
perhaps it is caused by my "erland plugin life" since the
beginning....:-)

I'll try to explain, because honestly i'm lost

1.) sql "choose max rating list" from DPL3 is working (partly)
2.) i can rate songs with rating lights enabled via material skin
(bottom right stars) and context menu right click....

so "should" work....

what i get

big issues:
- even though i select a song, which comes up after 1.) but shouldn't
because != 5 Star and i decrease the rating half star or even "unrated"
via right click context menu, THIS DAMN SONG IS COMING BACK EVERY TIME
- even though i rate a song with top 5 star rating with Material skin
buttom right, or context menu, THIS DAMN SONG never appears with 1.)

small issue
- only about 15 songs are listed (with play all /add all from DPL3) even
though i have much more top rated songs.....
....is this by design, or a limitation, which i have to configure?

...as you are the guy providing such great plugins, to step into the gap
which has been there since erland left the party, i'm just asking for
hints here.....

my (end user) assumption.....
- could be because of rescan?
- i have never DELETED the db cache files (helped earlier back in
time....) after switching to DPL3
- i had used erlands plugins (trackstat and dynamic playlist) and still
use:
- custom browse
- custom scan
- database query 

but NO unsupported plugins

i have no clear picture of the issue and no clear log errors, what do
you think?

i'm just unsure if i can disable some of my plugins for testing, because
of fear to break my environment which was build over several
years......

what would you do?
Thank you for your advice.
