);

BASS_ERROR_NOTAVAILThe requested position is not available.

Remarks

This function is like the standard BASS_ChannelGetPosition, but it compensates for the mixer's playback buffering to return the position that is currently being heard. If the mixer is not being played by BASS, it is possible to account for any other output system latency with the BASS_ATTRIB_MIXER_LATENCY option or the BASS_Mixer_ChannelGetPositionEx function.
