When passed certain data, the variables get set incorrectly with the sed and eval combo.

Vast FMT will "crash" and be unable to receive RDS data if not used with a powered USB hub. If this happens, a cold boot of the device is required.

See if any of the reset functions in the fmtx API will revive it without a cold boot. So far, the fmtxIoAppFeReset function was attempted without success.

Add support to set a non-sequence data message that can be sent over RDS.

For example:
• Thanks for listening to Lights on 8th Ave.
• Donate to Cloth a Child by texting clothes to 99999

I don't get any audio from the Transmitter or RDS output using Beta_2, I do get audio from the Transmitter using Beta_1 but over modulated audio

The Antenna Tuning Capacitor setting is not saving new values, always reverts back to zero.

RDS on car radio shows the Station Text but no RDS text media information when playlists or sequences are played. Audio quality is excellent. Downloaded mp3 from FPP and viewed properties to ensure meta is present.

FPP Version: 5.4
Platform: Raspberry Pi (Pi 4)

Vast FMT212R
USB attached

FPP Plugin: Si4713/Vast V-FMT212R

Enable RDS checked
Station Text:
Meadow Ridge Lights
RDS Text:
[{Artist} - {Title}]

The usb/i2c traffic talking to the Vast causes some very noticeable audio sounds (similar to an old dial-up modem) when writing the RDS data.

fails to set properties, what seems like every other day. If I unplug power and power it backup it works.
