Thanks! I think this is needed because Elisa is not able to set the rating of track currently.
However, the icons when hovering now jump around. But if we keep an empty space, it probably will look strange with the buttons shown somewhere in the middle of an entry if no rating is shown. Any ideas?

I don't think the buttons look so bad jumping around, after all there's only two positions they can be. However I think if we keep them in the same position (in the middle) but actually push them farther to the left we could create the illusion of columns, and it wouldn't look so weird. I'll take a look at it.

Sorry for the delay. I think with the column there is too much wasted space, especially with long titles.
I still cannot think of a good way to solve this now. It will eventually go away once Elisa gets the editing of ratings. Maybe you first version is still the best.
Let's wait for @mgallien opinion.

we could actually flip the position of the buttons and the star ratings...

Works fine. Thanks.
There is an issue with the rating in the view filter. We do not see the empty stars so the look is odd. There is also the fact that users will not know where to click to change the value.

I've given this a try but it still looks weird. Is setting ratings too far away? We could put this patch in the backburner until that's working. That way we don't have to worry about the buttons jumping around.

Unfortunately still a while. KFileMetaData has currently not the ability to write these tags, and Elisa itself also has no infrastructure yet to actually edit the metadata

Ah ok, I thought it was closer because Dolphin can write them.
