Compare with String

[thm655321]

Did a search and did not find my answer.

Is it possible to use an "if" conditional to compare an iD3 value to an actual string?  For example:

%?if(%ia,  =, Radiohead)<x|y>

i.e., if the artist = Radiohead then ...

Is that possible?  When I try this I only succeed in crashing the simulator (Clip+), which leads me to think you cannot, but I thought I'd ask anyways.

Thanks in advance.

that should be working.
Does the track that crashes it usually show the artist tag?

Thanks for the reply.

I was %ia as the example but really I was using %iG.

In my collection those flac files that are actually conversions from vinyl I put "VINYL" in the grouping tag.  The actual line that crashes the simulator is:

%?if(%iG, =, VINYL)<Vinyl|Not Vinyl>

That crashes the simulator.

As a test I used %ia and it also crashed the simulator.

I know that comparing one iD3 tag to another works, e.g., comparing %ia to %Ia.  Maybe you just can't compare to actual text?

I just commited a fix (hopefully it works)

Great thanks.

Noob question, how do I take advantage of the fix?  Do I download a daily build?

Thanks again.

Yes, once its committed you just need to down a build on or after the commit revision.

Beautiful, thanks again.
