I’m planning to put Navidrome on a Raspberry Pi in order to manage and consume my music collection, however I’ve realized that all my ratings are stored in-file and given that Navidrome is multi-user, I’m wondering how that works? Will I be able to preserve my ratings? Will Navidrome even pick them up?

    In an ideal world, the rating would only be written back to the files when they’re downloaded. But in general, I just need the ratings to populate the database once. I’ve put a lot of effort into rating my music and would like to be able to enjoy said efforts via Navidrome’s smart lists in the same way I used to do with Clementine locally.

      Yup, makes perfect sense. I guess I was more thinking about what it would look like as a Navidrome feature generally.

      Having a script available that you could run would definitely be useful for people. I guess you could do it straight into the database or use the API.

      Do you have the technical chops to code this script if you can’t find it?
