Music block fails to hide when player closes

[Deedasmi]

OS - Arch WM - i3 4.21.1 i3status-rs - Git (via AUR) Player - firefox (twitch)

Block config:

[[block]]
block = "music"
hide_when_empty = true
format = " $icon $combo $play $next"

Hides correctly when no player

With player:

Ctrl+w firefox tab to close player:

Happens with just $title as well.

Can you share the debug messages? It should list available players. To enable them, run with RUST_LOG=music=debug env variable (e.g. RUST_LOG=music=debug cargo r >/dev/null).

$combo and $title are fallible so you need to use | with them, right? The default format string for the music block already handles that IIRC

[ammgws]

The music block docs say "Note: All placeholders can be absent. See the examples below to learn how to handle this." but the examples aren't very obvious unless you are already familiar with the formatter.

[MaxVerevkin]

Do we even need hide_when_empty? I think it only confuses people.

I guess not needed after #1618 , just need to give an example format string that replicates the behaviour
