Possible Bug - OSC VU Meter Values

[tdc]

I am designing a control surface based on OSC and am finding the VU values being sent out are behaving oddly. Despite being steady in Reaper ( tone generator set to a fixed value) the OSC Values for the given meter oscillate.

In this example, if I set the tone generator to 1kHz @ -18dB FS, Sine. the MCP shows a steady Meter at -18, but the OSC data being output fluctuates between two values. [0.6257 and 0.6461]

I have tried various update rates of meters in the OSC settings preferences pane, and different tone frequencies and waveform shapes. All result in this strange fluctuating OSC message.

Interesting the amount that the OSC messages fluctuate by remains constant regardless of the set value. Its always [0.0204].

Any thoughts? Am I being a goose?

Attached is a graph of the messages.

Further to this observation, I have moved from using the inbuilt OSC surface to Geoff's CSI, and am noticing the same fluctuating levels.

Could I ask whether this is a known bug in Reaper or something I have misunderstood?

Thanks, TDC

Bumping this as I have gotten back into building some OSC interfaces - and really curious as to cause of this issue?

Thanks
