Database format lines not stripping after 5 tags

[onocentaur]

A bug? My format line is:
%format "fmt_comp" "%02d%s - %s - %02d:%02d" tracknum title artist Lm Ls %strip = "2"
In the database view I get all the tags - the %strip isn't removing the first two characters (i.e. track number). I've played around a bit and it's fine when there are only four tags in the format line, adding a fifth kills the stripping. Any thoughts?!

I think this is governed by a constant within the tagtree.c code file called MAX_TAGS. By default this is defined = 5. When generating the format strings in the method

static int get_format_str(struct display_format *fmt)

it limits the number of tags:

    ...
    while (fmt->tag_count < MAX_TAGS)
    {
        ....

The only way to change this is to change the code.
