i've been fooling around with the $mod command trying to make it display the percentage of time_elapsed / time_total (both in seconds) and i've discovered that the modulus command, $mod(x,y), just outputs x.
i've been using $mod to figure out filesizes (the 3 digits after the decimal). it outputs a number (that isn't x) but i just checked the math and it's wrong.
what's up with the $mod command?
Full Version: modulus isn't working right

As explained in the titleformatting help, "Calculates remainder of x divided by y." Thus the remainder of time_elapsed divided by time_total is always going to be time_elapsed because time_total is always a larger number until the song ends. The best way to do a percentage for length IMO is:
CODE
$muldiv(%_time_elapsed_seconds%,100,%_length_seconds%)
ok, i just looked up what modulus is, i had the wrong idea. and after i stopped using $mod, i figured out that calculation you provided
