Option to write the rating automatically in *.png [Solved]

Hello XnView team and board,

first of all: I love XnView (MP), thanks for this awesome program!

My question is about preversing the rating in *.png files.

When I rate *.png images, the rating appears in XnViewMP.
Now I use Photoshop (PS) to view the rating and it's not there.

When I change the rating in XnViewMP and save the file (viewer mode), the rating appears in PS.

First problem:
I want to rate the files in Browser mode, but there is no "File/Save" option.

Second problem:
I want to rate the pictures fast. I don't want to save every single picture manually.

Any suggestions how to fix my problems?

Here are my metadata settings:

Thanks for your reply.
I found out that Photoshop was the problem.
The metadata was written correctly by XnView.
