NYX conversion of empty image references

As pointed out by SleeplessSub, viewtopic.php?p=369364#p369364, the following tease gets stuck on "Loading media".

The EOS conversion contains the following with a suspicious media reference:

  "start" : [
     {
        "nyx.page" : {
           "action" : {
              "nyx.buttons" : [
                 {
                    "commands" : [
                       {
                          "goto" : {
                             "target" : "home"
                          }
                       }
                    ],
                    "label" : "Continue"
                 }
              ]
           },
           "media" : {
              "nyx.image" : "file:"
           },
           "text" : "...
        }
     }
  ]

The original NYX script contains this:

start#page(
    text: ...
    media:pic(id:""),
    action:go(target:home#)
)

The console error is the following, but it's a bit tricky to interpret the minified JavaScript, so I'm guessing about the cause of the problem.

Code: Select all

I'm not sure whether this is a problem with the NYX -> EOS conversion, or a change to the EOS player itself, but it looks like something is now less tolerant of empty image references.
