No save of speed-values in XM

[Sam_Zen]

I ran into quite a rare form of using OMPT, because I used a complete music-track of 5:40 as a single sample (2 actually, split in L + R).
I wanted to add the 'Forest' reverb of OMPT to this piece, and then save it as Wav again.
To keep the save simple, I made it possible to get the whole track played in just one pattern by setting the number of steps to the max : 256 and by setting the ticks/row to its max too : 64.
Then with the Initial Tempo at 120, one pattern would have a duration estimated of 5:41, so it worked.

This was done in the XM-format (old habit). For archiving, I saved the module as well.
When I opened this file again, it appeared to have lost those speed-values, it was set back to the default..
To check things, I did the whole thing again in the IT-format and saved it too. Opening that one showed the correct settings.
My suspicion is a bit about the ticks/row max. I never tried this trick with older versions, so I dunno, but maybe this was never possible in the XM-format anyway..

This is a limitation of the XM format, and IMO not a bug, and therefore closing. Rewbs, if you think it should be open again, do so

Note that you can always write down the speed commands in the pattern to make sure they got saved

In XM I believe its A40 and A78

This closing as a bug is right, because your answer proves my suspicion about value-limitations.
I'm aware of declaring the speed-codes in the file-start itself, because it was a must with the MOD-format.
