Dataref Output format differs between XP10 and XP11

Question

Hi!

In X-plane 10 I use network Dataref-Out to drive my external GPS. The format of the output is like this examples.

DREF@$11.0000,4.0000,23.0000,39863.6224,58.4490,13.9686,0.0000,16.2818,-81.4055,-4.8541,22.0000,3.0000,

In X-plane 11 I also use the Dataref-Out in the same way but here is the output not in the same format at all. See exemples here.
DREF+É?8sim/flightmodel/position/groundspeed[0]

In the Data Output page it clearly says that "Datarefs will be written and read as $+comma-separated strings."

Am I doing something wrong or why don't I get the output I expected?

Regards Pontus.

If it changed that much it might be a bug. You can file a bug report here. Please give as much specific information as you can--exactly how you set it up in X-Plane and where you see the output (screenshots comparing the output between versions would be helpful, for example).

Confirmed this looks like a real bug and we're investigating now why this changed.
