I'm wondering if something has changed since I entered those format lines (a long time ago), meaning something in them is now causing this sporadic problem.
This is the main string that used to parse OK in TitleSwitcher but it now rejects (even though it still displays, albeit sporadically):* ALBUM:4 ,PLAYTIME / SONGTIME Track X_OF_Y ,ARTIST:4* After much trial and error I've managed to create an equivalent format that TitleSwitcher accepts: ALBUM:4 ,\" \"PLAYTIME / SONGTIME\" TRACK \"X_OF_Y\" \",ARTIST:4 The strange thing is, MusicInfoSCR (when selecting "live data preview") likes the first string (that TitleSwitcher rejects), but just shows a blank for the new one that TitleSwitcher likes! In fact, I can't get any TitleSwitcher strings to work at all in MusicInfoSCR now, other than the original one. I created this simple one called "ALBUM_ARTIST" as a test: ALBUM,ARTIST When I select it in MusicInfoSCR, it shows nothing in the live data preview, and the SB3 reverts to showing "Now Playing" in the top line. Here's what the log looks like with that selected: Code: -------------------- [11-11-12 22:53:53.7385] Plugins::MusicInfoSCR::Info::getFormatString (331) MusicInfoSCR: there seems to be nothing left...
