New music scanner, music ratings

Hey, so how can I populate the musix ratings in Plex from the local id3 tags?

Plex doesn’t do that currently. You might want to add your vote to this feature request.

The music advanced library is developing well. The main missing features for me are 1) reading the ID3 tags for ratings and 2) allowing to filter based on ratings.
My typical “autofilter” playlist is [genres]+[minimum ratings]. I have used this for years with iTunes and WMP and others. This way when I add a new album, I listen to it all, then tag the best tracks. When I run a playlist the new, best songs are added. In Windows Media Center, this was very simple.
I would be very grateful if you could set Plex to do something similar. This is the only feature that is keeping Plex from being my primary media player.
Thank you. Purchasing a lifetime PlexPass was some of the best money I have ever spent.

2020 update to this 2015 post - while the autoplaylist features have expanded, there is still no import of the ratings tags. How can this be? We have had reading and writing of ratings since the early days of WMP. Please add this fundamental feature.
