Thank you!
Thank you!

« Last post by Bilgus on Today at 11:03:14 AM »make sure you are using this very latest dev build from like 15 mins ago (52e22b25)
I suspect the multiple slashes are the issue
that said I have very inconsistent behavior between devices so its not great to hear its even variable between installs

« Last post by Bilgus on Today at 11:01:20 AM »I assume %st is just using the string length and the extra slashses in one of the paths is causing misalignment like your directory now comes in as ///Playlists and gets stripped by length of 'Playlists' ending up with tsi_Pod

« Last post by iPodVT on Today at 11:01:13 AM »Okay - I just now updated another iPod from ae01ea7fd9-240223 to 19f21a2b3f-240328 and I am not seeing the problem with that 2nd iPod. So then I updated the first iPod (the one that demonstrated the problem) from 6e058fe77f-240326 to 19f21a2b3f-240328 and I am still seeing the problem with this first iPod. Very strange. I also checked the code in each iPod's .sbs file and it is the same. The iPod exhibiting the problem is a 5.5 Gen iPod Video and the other is a 5th Gen iPod Video. Both were originally 30GB but now have iFlash boards with 256GB Samsung Pro Plus microSDs.
I'm not sure what else to do, but at the moment I have to set this aside until later today. Please let me know if you have any suggestions for what else I might do to resolve this. Thanks.

Theming and Appearance Customization / Recent dev build breaks my theme(?)
« Last post by iPodVT on Today at 09:23:06 AM »Something has changed in one of the recent dev builds that seems to have broken my personal theme's use of %ss and %St.
I have a location and naming convention for the Playlists directory on each of my various iPods that allows me to cache a string that my theme can then retrieve and use to display as a label in the theme's status bar. This allows each iPod to have a unique label while keeping the theme code generic. So if my iPod is named iPod_1, I name the Playlists directory PlaylistsiPod_1 and place it in the iPod's root directory. When my theme goes to draw that iPod's name in the status bar, it retrieves the name string with
%ss(10,-,%St(playlist catalog directory))
which strips away "/Playlists" and leaves "iPod_1". Or I should say it used to do that. Yesterday when I updated one of my iPods to the latest dev build I found that the label getting drawn in the status bar is now tsiPod_1, presumably starting with the last two characters of "Playlists".
I suspect this has been caused by the change in fdc3668a6a 23rd Mar 14:37, where enumeration of mounted volumes has been added/changed.
[edit] More to the point, it would seem that every theme's prior use of %St(playlist catalog directory) will be affected.
