I love the details about my music files, How do you add the Play Count to MP3 Tag Files? Thanks

See the list of tag fields, esp. POPULARIMETER  
[https://docs.mp3tag.de/mapping/#popularimeter](https://docs.mp3tag.de/mapping/#popularimeter)

Although you can fill it, I have not seen a single player that stores the play count in the files. The players I know save it in their own database.  
And vice versa: no player that I know evaluates the field part and updates its internal play counter.  
But maybe you know one.
