Answer 1

First and foremost, your select values are ambiguous. They contain values that can filter AND sort the entries - Separate the two since they are two different functionality.

Next, you need to define a custom Filter which will filter the data based on the rating selected. For this, you enhance the filtering criteria with the "Rating" property to associate the rating selected with a rating value.

Finally, associate the sorting with a predicate and a reverse value - the predicate determines the property / column to determine for the sort (price in your case) while the reverse determines the ascending / descending nature of the sort.
