Viewing entire comments tag in MP3s

(1/4) > >>

Desertway:
I hope I'm in the right place for this question. I'm new to Rockbox and looking for a way to view the entire embedded comment field for an MP3. I have seen some themes that incorporate the tag, but it is truncated. Can it be viewed in a way other than the WPS? Thanks very much.

Bilgus:
Rockbox internally probably truncates it due to memory constraints

you could parse it yourself in Lua check out the hex viewer example

Desertway:
Thanks very much.

Frankenpod:
Ideally some smart coding-capable person would be able to modify the main code so as to add an additional function to retrieve the second 230 characters of the comment (the existing function only gives you the first 230 characters).  I could then rewrite my theme below so as to report the full comment.

I was looking at your theme. It would be perfect as I primarily listen to podcasts, and they have a lot of notes. A change to expand those limitations in the code would be great. Do you think there is enough interest at this point?
