Topic: Ratings - format/source = iTunes? MediaMonkey / Windows Explorer? other? No ratings appear.

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

I had "the world's best-organized music library" - in MediaMonkey. Then I got married, and I wanted my wife and I to be able to play music from each other's collections, and since she only knew iTunes, I migrated everything to iTunes. All my ratings were lost. iTunes uses a different ratings [format] / database field name than Windows Explorer / Media Monkey. Now I'm in Virtual DJ, and it's not showing ratings from songs that show ratings in iTunes and/or Windows Explorer.
Do I need to re-rate all my music?

Right-click the iTunes folder and select 'import ratings'

Thank you!

Can I do the same for songs rated in MediaMonkey / Windows Explorer but not rated in iTunes?

I right-clicked "Local Music" etc, but found nothing like "Import Ratings".

Windows Media Player and Windows Explorer store the ratings in the tag of the file I think.
Make sure getRatingsFromTags option is enabled, and then right-click the files you want to update and select Reload Tags.
