1. **Separated loops** , simple.

**How to reproduce:**  
Export any track(s) using config:

```
$loop(,1)$if($eql(1,2),$puts(test,passed),)$loopend()$loop(,1)$get(test)$loopend()

```

Loops can be any others, $eql(1,2) is example of obviously false condition.

**Expected:** output file is empty

**Observed:** output file contain "passed"

2. **Nested loops** , more complicated.

**How to reproduce:**  
Export few (two at least) tracks using config:

```
$loop(%_path%)$if($eql(1,2),$puts(test,passed),)$loop(,1)$get(test)$loopend()$loopend()

```

First loop can be for:

  - %\_path%, %\_filename% - for tracks with different filenames
  - %\_path%, %\_folderpath% - for tracks from different folders
  - %title% - for tracks with different titles
  - etc

**Expected:** output file is empty

**Observed:** output file contain "passed"
