The notification on line 85 will not stay there, it's only for now while I'm creating the addon, to me "see" the addon working. Once it's done, will be removed, maybe as an option on settings to on/off the notification (still need to learn how to do this). I will only keep the notification on line 35, which is a notification when the music stops, as I see no reason to show notifications while the player is running. With the player running the ratings will be saved but without notification.
But is worth mention: even with the notification disabled, the refresh effect still happens. Only deactivating the "xbmc.executeJSONRPC" on line 91 the "refresh"effect is gone (but without this, the song will not be rating LOL)

But I like the idea of put a timer in notifications. Sometimes I think they are too long to only show one simple line. I will use in the future for sure.

I downloaded your addon and will play with it later today or tomorrow. How do I reproduce the issue and what should I look for (just look for the screen refresh indication) ?
I do see one minor thing with the lines:
time.sleep(1) # wait for 60 seconds before checking again
if monitor.waitForAbort(1): # Sleep/wait for abort for 1 second: # Sleep/wait for abort for 1 second
I'll try to reproduce / fix the issue you are having and provide an improvement for if monitor.waitForAbort(1): # Sleep/wait for abort for 1 second
Thanks,
Jeff

Ok, I see the main problem. You are basically using JSONRPC calls to pass a variable (i.e. get, increment and set) every second. This is a heavy handed approach and is updating the Kodi database every second. There may be a skin option to get rid of the pulsing but a better approach is to leverage your class to manage passing the variable / incrementing current_time. Then use Playback started to get the current time value and playback stopped to set it. While playing you would have something like self.current_time = 0 in your class init statement and increment it / check it as the song plays. If you wanted to periodically check the playtime while the file is playing you can do what I do with bookmarks and check every so often (I save bookmarks every 30 seconds).
For example:
if current_time % 30 == 0:
set value in Kodi database via JSON RPC
I don't have time right now to modify your code but hopefully this helps. Also, you need to check that your JSON get call actually returns an ID. I tried playing a URL and it threw an error due to no ID since a URL wouldn't be in the Kodi database.
Thanks,
Jeff

One other logic question for you with regards to getting the current_time via the JSON RPC call on a regular basis. Are you wanting to update the rating based upon how long the user actually listens to the song or the position in the song ? I ask because with your regular get approach your ratings will change more quickly if the user fast forwards or rewinds the song. That could produce some interesting and unwanted results. If you base it on the while waitforabort loop timer then you have the actual time the user listens to the song, regardless if the decide to rewind or fast forward.
On the addon I shared, I am setting / saving the bookmark on a periodic basis so I want to know the exact position of current play. I think you may just be wanting the total time played vs. current play position. If so, the loop timer approach would be much simpler.
Thanks,
Jeff

I disagree!! The correct way for a python addon to manipulate the databases in Kodi is via
xbmc.executeJSONRPC(). I don't think that doing that should affect the GUI in any way.EG, when scanning music tags, Kodi will skip the "Encoded by" tag (TENC for id3v2, 'ENCODEDBY' for ape/ogg). If I want to write some python to add TENC to the end of say, the comment tag of a song, I would not expect the GUI to flicker whilst doing so, regardless of the speed of the scanning and the calls to/from the database. After all, it doesn't when core is scanning and or/updating the database, so why should it if python is scanning and updating the database?
If indeed it does, then I would suggest that it's a bug.

I am not saying that JSON RPC is the wrong way to update the database. I am just questioning whether continually getting/setting/getting the userrating value via JSON RPC every second is the best approach. It would be less overhead of grabbing and setting less frequently based upon something other than every second, especially if the main goal is simply to pass a variable within the addon.. I agree it is likely a bug causing the flickering and shouldn't this. However if you couple this with my second post about whether he is looking for the current position vs. the total time played, a review of the logic approach is what I am suggesting.
Thanks,
Jeff

Ok. Here's a simple fix. I added a new variable called original_rating = 0. This it is then checked against your new calculated_rating variable in the timer loop. Only when calculated_rating is greater than the original_rating will it set the Kodi database with a new value. Thus you aren't writing the same value over and over to the database. I also modified the waitforabort loop and added time values to the notification messages. I tested this and see the music database userrating only being updated when a new userrating value is calculated.
python:
original_rating = 0
while not monitor.abortRequested():

song_rating = song_details["userrating"]

song_length = song.getDuration()
song_parts = int(song_length / 11)

WOW!!! A simple elegant solution!! it's now running om my main Kodi, and the refresh effect happens very rarely. But I think there is no way to avoid this, because when updating the database, kodi "needs to update" right?

Yeas,
this was the first thing I "imagined" when I thought about the general idea of the addon, but the inexperience in addon for Kodi spoke louder. Anyway: THANK YOU VERY MUCH for your help and your time @jbinkley60!!!!!
I'll try a few more ideas and try to make them available in the repository for everyone

Here's another fix which addresses detecting whether a playing file is in the Kodi database or not, removing the error which was occurring. I also made a logic change on the current_time detection to eliminate the sleep 1 second. You might want to move this to GitHub to make it easier to collaborate. Also, I am not sure your onPlayBackStopped method is working the way you want due the scope of some variables. Additional testing will be needed to confirm.

original_rating = calculated_rating = 0

RE: Help to set "UserRating" in a song using script - sagrath - 2023-02-04
Here, I ulpload to my private github!
Song Auto rating Girthub
Continuing my saga, here are some thoughts:
When I came up with this script, I thought of certain details:
Well, for the script to work 100% and have accurate evaluations, the situation must occur as follows:
When starting the song, the evaluation calculations start and two variants are taken into account:
Variant A: If the music has original empty note or equal to Zero, the script will divide the music in 11 parts and calculate the note being the part 1/11 = rating 0, 2/11 = rating 1, 3/11 = rating 2.... 10/11 = rating 9 and 11/11 = rating 10.
Variant B: If the song already has some rating, the script will calculate the same as variant A, and will calculate the initial rating, plus the calculated rating and divide by 2, thus making an average note.
And I thought of the following five scenarios in which music is evaluated:
Scenario A: The music plays to the end and the player stops.
Occurs when the song is the only or last song in the playlist, and the repeat function is disabled.
Scenario B: Music is stopped by user action:
Occurs when the user presses the STOP button, and the player stops, regardless of which position the music is in.
Scenario C: The song plays until the end and the next song starts:
Occurs when the song is not the only or last song in the playlist, or when the repeat function is activated.
Scenario D: The song is skipped by the user, either to the next one in the playlist, or the previous one:
Occurs when the user presses the skip-forward or skip-backwards buttons, causing the current song to be stopped, but without the player stopping.
Scenario E: The music ends and then starts:
It happens when the song is the only one in the playlist and the repeat function is activated.
While writing the code, I noticed that scenario A was easily solved with:
else:
monitor.onPlayBackStopped()
which calls the function "def onPlayBackStopped(self):" and it's good.
The scenario B uses the same funcion as scenario A, so it's good too!
scenario C is possible as long as the evaluation of the music occurs in real time, because in this way, regardless of the user's action, the music will receive the note along which it is played, but it will not take into account empty notes or zero notes , because as soon as it receives a score of 1 (that is, the second 1/11 of the song) the calculation will change to a song with a score != of zero or empty.
That is, either it is possible to evaluate in real time with automatic evaluation of the next song in the playlist, or it is possible to evaluate the music according to its current score, which would be current score plus calculated score divided by 2.
complicated right?
Scenario E is the same as scenario C, the difference is that the song will be re-evaluated at each execution.
As for scenario D, I really couldn't run it at all. By the way, I even managed it, because if I use scenario C, when skipping the song, there will be an evaluation of the next or previous one.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to check when the user skips the song?
I did some tests over the week, and managed to find a logic where I got scenarios A and B and C taking into account zero and non-zero grades. In other words, only scenario D was missing.
I'm going crazy already looking for a solution. Who told me to get into programming hahahahaha!

In this logic, I do not use the sugestion of @jbinkley60 to use new variable called original_rating = 0, because now the song only wil be rating 2 seconds before has stopped or ended.
But as i said above, I can't get to scenario D, because I can't find a logic to increment within that scope. I also can't find in the Kodi documentation how to identify when the user triggers skip-forward/backward.
Does anyone have a suggestion or opinion?

Quote:Does anyone have any ideas on how to check when the user skips the song?let me try to answer with a question that you can check on
if the user skips wouldnt it still call back to monitor.onPlayBackStopped() because the current song has effectively stopped
if so, could you check if something else is playing after in that event then you have differentiated between a stop and a skip

So that's what I'm trying to do: differentiate a stop from a jump. For the stop monitor.onPlayBackStopped() is what sends the logic to "def onPlayBackStopped(self)". But for the jump, the script needs to identify that "the current song was interrupted but the player wasn't", save the calculations on the skipped song, and then start new calculations for the new song that is playing.
Doing a check by the name of the song, I even managed to identify when the song "changes" but then the calculations all go to the song that is currently playing, and not to the one that was skipped.
Like I said, I'm going crazy already hahaha
