Conditionals with timings

<< < (2/5) > >>

ew:
Perhaps I should have clarified what my issue is.

There are 3 alternating displays (the info for each is divided into 2 lines):

* Composer
* Track Artist
* Album Artist
On top of that is a conditional.  The conditional says that if the tag value is blank, skip (or display for time=zero) that display.

For example if the composer tag = "abc", and there are no Track Artist or Album Artist tags, the display will be:

Composer
ABC

and there would be no alternating text (because of the conditional.

What is happening for me is that the blanks are displaying alternatively.  It is as if the %t(0) tag is being displayed for a short time instead of no time at all.

I hope this explanation is a bit clearer.

JdGordon:
interesting experiment... can you add ;%t(0) at least 25 times to your line and see if there is a difference in the time it takes to get back to displaying the composer text?
I think I see the bug and if you do notice an extra delay then it would be confirmed.. or alternativly, can you build your own builds?

ew:
What I did is added ;%t(0) - 25 times at the end of one of the two lines.  The two lines have always been in sync (same conditions, same timings, just different text being displayed.

The two lines were out of sync - which means to me that the ;%t(0) did add some time.

Just to be clear - what I tested is the following:

1st line

--- Quote ---%?ic<%s%al%t(6)Composer:|%t(0)>;%?iA<%s%al%t(6)Alb Artist:|%t(0)>;%?ia<%s%al%t(6)Trk Artist:|%t(0)>;%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0);%t(0)
--- End quote ---
2nd line

--- Quote ---%?ic<%s%al%t(6)%ic|%t(0)>;%?iA<%s%al%t(6)%iA|%t(0)>;%?ia<%s%al%t(6)%ia|%t(0)>

--- End quote ---

I hope this helps...

Thanks for looking at this.

JdGordon:
yep, OK, then I see what the problem is.

JdGordon:
should be fixed in  r27956, so once that finishes building (3 min or so) please try it and let me know
