I'm currently attempting to use this plugin for streaming output for OBS to display what music is currently playing.
I am using the following format string, which I was previously using with foobar_np_simple:
Now Playing: $if(%isplaying%,%artist% - %title%$if(%ispaused%, |PAUSED|),Nothing.)
I am currently using the On New Track, On Pause, and On Stop events. So, the expected output is something like:
While playing: Now Playing: Artist - Song
While paused: Now Playing: Artist - Song |PAUSED|
While stopped: Now Playing: Nothing.
The playing and paused states seem to work fine, but when stopping a track it seemingly clears the output instead of evaluating the format string.
I've also tried without the third argument of the if clause, but the output is still cleared on stop.
I've attached a video demonstration of the issue: https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/019e6509-0514-4ca2-8f60-23286a8ed30d
Does it seem like this something that is occurring due to a configuration issue on my end? Or could this be a bug?
It seems like Hydrogen Audio user SushiKishi ran into a similar issue, but they seemingly never followed up, so I'm not aware of a fix.
Thanks for making this project, it's nice to see folks reviving and maintaining some of these older plugins! :)
Howdy!
