We lost the "bomb" rating! [#19522]
Some thousands of my songs got a "bomb" rating in MM4. In my case this symbolizes double songs.
But this is not longer possible in MM5.
For me this is a fatal blow for the transfer of my music collection to MM5 and I can stop all activities now...
PLEASE give us the "bomb" option back!

Re: We lost the "bomb" rating!
Bomb still exists as zero rating. Right click a file and select Rating zero stars.

Re: We lost the "bomb" rating!
"zero rating" is no rating. It's a sign for "untouched" songs!
"bomb rating" is an active decision not to assign any scaled star rating or to put the song away (by keeping it in the collection)

Re: We lost the "bomb" rating!
It IS at first simply a number. It MEANS TO YOU what you made about it.
Possible Workarounds: use a half-star-rating, set a mark in comments, use one of the custom fields...

Re: We lost the "bomb" rating!
No rating is Unknown. Zero rating is Bomb rating.

Re: We lost the "bomb" rating!
Ahhhhh! Okay, now I recognize it.
Seems to be a solution...
I feel like a beginner in MM5... Thank you for your patience with me!

Re: We lost the "bomb" rating!
But back to the OP's point. The bomb is gone.
See here.
- MM5 - 4 tracks ... top two unrated, the next is a "bomb", and the last one is rated one star
- The same thing in MM4
Also note the active row in MM5 (ie. the top row) ... it is unrated, but looks like it is a "bomb" track to me
nb: MM5 image shows Material Design skin
Want a dark skin for MM5? This is the one that works best for me .. elegant, compact & clear.
Re: We lost the "bomb" rating!
Hi,
OK, I also LIKED when I could see that BOMB icon when rating Tracks. I always remember phrase BOMB THE BASS I had Short cut for that on my PC IR Remote eg. Few seconds playing of track -> Button pressed -> BOMBED track -> Play next
Created Pool, so that we can see how to make this possible in Skinning for future MM versions.

Re: We lost the "bomb" rating!
+1 for seeing the Bomb. I used it for tracks never to be played again and it was highly visible.
Re: We lost the "bomb" rating!
Yeah.., there is a slightly devilish satisfaction in bombing tracks that deserve it.
Miss it too...
MM5 (2606)and MM4 (1919) installed and running well on:
Debian 11 KDE, EndeavourOS KDE (wine 7.4 via playonlinux), Win10 64bit

Re: We lost the "bomb" rating!
Related to this in MM4 under properties I was able to assign a rating, including a bomb in the dropdown.
In MM5 under properties, I do not have a drop-down (running 502 release) - so how would I assign a zero rating or unknown?
If this is affected by my skin being "Metro M", then what skin must I use to see all features best??

Re: We lost the "bomb" rating!
With the mouse just in front (left side) of the Rating it will rate it with zero/bomb Rating. A little further left and it will be Unknown Rating. It works the same on the Player and in the Filelisting/Playing windows. You can use a drop-down like selector with right click on a file using Rating in the Context Menu.

Re: We lost the "bomb" rating!
OK, great, found the right-click drop-down, It would be good if this existed under properties as well.
Tried setting a song to unknown, using the dropdown, while in my 4-star playlist. The song disappeared - as it should, but also the program crashed. No message just became unresponsive to any clicks, needed task manager to close it.

Please capture the crash in a debug log (step 4b) and attach the log to a Support Ticket: viewtopic.php?f=30&t=86643
This will help a developer analyze why this happens in your setup.
