HELP!!! - Popularity stats
Well_Jaggy - 4-9-2006 at 09:21 AM

I know that this is probably a basic question, but I just can't seem to find the answer for it!

I want to reset all the popularity stats for all my songs. by that I mean that I want to remove all the play counts, ratings etc. Can this be done?

Thanks!

There is a "Reset All Popularity Stats" option at the bottom of the eJukebox Homepage. But I don't think that really removes all the play counts and ratings in the tags!

That would be interesting that Audiosoft clarify this point.

"Reset All Popularity Stats" on the Home button view sets the pick count back to 0 for all songs in the database (does not effect star ratings) but it does not update the tags. The next time the song is picked the pickcount will be set to 1 in the tag. If you just want to reset an artist or albums pick count back to 0 you can right click it in the songlist and select "remove/reset popularity" but that also does not update the tag. So if you rebuild your database the old popularity will be restored (for the songs that have not been picked since resetting) so you will need to click "Reset All Popularity Stats" again after rebuilding to set all the pickcounts back to 0 in the database.

Look... it's giving me a idea:
Why not to add a option in the file import box? "Reset All Popularity Stats for the New imported files".

Don't ask me why I request that... but that would be usefull in some quite precise cases! :)

Thanks

Scenario:

Person 1 copies the digital cd collection of person 2 (I know this is illegal, but person 1 and person 2 don't care). Person 1 is irritated that he can not get rid of the popularity stats of person 2, when he imports his music to ejukebox. He wants so badly to remove them permanently and think he has until rebuilds his database. He goes over to person 2 to kick his but.

Your scenario seems... Possible! You would be a good scriptwriter, Fishy! :D
