Possibly a bug with WPS tags? (Conditionals, scrolling, peak meter)

[dfkt]

When you run the WPS below you'll notice that the 'track info' lines aren't scrolling, as they should be.

To get the lines scrolling, you either have to only use one 'track info' field for both conditions, or you have to remove the peak meter tags.

So it seems scrolling lines in conditional viewports are somehow broken by a peak meter being present on the WPS.

This was tested on the current X5 simulator, as well as on a real X5 running the current build.

Code: [Select]

%Cl|0|0|l74|t74|
%?C<%Vda|%Vdb>

###### Track info - AA
%Vl|a|0|10|-|44|1|-|-|
%s%?ia<%ia|%d1>
%s%?id<%id %?iy<(%iy)|>|%fn>

###### Track info - No AA

%s%?ia<%ia|%d1>

###### Peak meter - AA
%Vl|a|76|114|-|-|1|-|-|
%pm

###### Peak meter - No AA
%Vl|b|0|114|-|-|1|-|-|
%pm

Does anyone know of a fix which still lets me use two conditional viewports for both, track info and peak meter?

I brought this up last year, but there seemed to be little interest.  I didn't create a Flyspray report, so perhaps that's the way to go now.

Not many of the devs read these forums.  If you want a bug to be more widely noticed, a bug report is required.

From what I remember, you can't include real-time updating tags in a scrolling line. (I can't get into the Rockbox site to check at present.)

You misunderstood my post.

ID3/metadata/track info tags are scrolling in most all WPS themes. They get broken if a *static* peak meter is present (no matter if in the same or another viewport) while the regular scrolling ID3 tags are in a conditional viewport. They work fine once you remove the peak meter from one of the conditionals, or take the ID3/metadata/track info tags out of a conditional and use only one for both states.
