WMC Music Star Rating Issue

[Keylonta]

The issue I am having on both my W7 computers is if I play a new music album in WMC while a current music album is playing, the star rating of the current song gets given to the first song that plays in the new album! To stop this behavior I have to push stop twice on the remote to stop playing the current song before playing a new one. Using the mouse, stop can only be selected once, so the issue persists. This is pretty frustrating as I’d like to be able to play a new album or song from a new album without having to push stop twice on the remote. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Hello all!

In Windows 7 Media Center, when a song is playing, if I go back to the music library and play a new song it is given the star rating of the previous song. I have to stop the song before choosing a new song if I don’t want this issue to occur. I have tested on two computers running W7, and both have the issue. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Given the lack of response I gues nobody does know a fix for this, however at the risk of asking the obvious, why would you not stop a song before choosing a new one to play? Sounds like a fairly good workaround to me.

Stopping the song with the mouse cursor by selecting the stop icon doesn't fix the issue, the star rating still gets copied to the new song. The only way I can stop this behavior is by pressing stop twice on the remote (stop can only be pushed once using the mouse cursor to select the stop icon unfortunately). I like to randomly pick different songs to listen to on the fly (not add them to a playlist), it seems the only way I will be able to do this is by pushing the stop button twice! on the remote.
