BASS is trying to open MOV video files
« on: 3 Aug '24 - 08:02 »
I have loaded bass.dll and plugins:
bass_aac.dll
bassalac.dll
BASS and plugins are the latest.

BASS and plugin settings:
Code: [Select]
BASS_SetConfig(BASS_CONFIG_MF_VIDEO, FALSE));
BASS_SetConfig(BASS_CONFIG_MF_DISABLE, TRUE));

BASS_SetConfig(BASS_CONFIG_MP4_VIDEO, FALSE));

I expect video files to not open. This is usually true, but some video files still open.
b64a.mov
Haloid.mov
100067667.mov
qtdivxwhitsubtitles.mov

Can you modify bass.dll so that it does not open video files?

PS: This video file causes the bass_aac.dll plugin to crash.
mwsag_trailer.mov

The 1st and 4th files aren't playing here, but the 2nd and 3rd are being played by BASS_AAC because it isn't detecting the video track. That seems to be due to slightly dogdy-looking "udta" atoms in those files. I'll look into a fix for that (and the crashing case) and then come back with an update for you to try.

I'm not sure we understood each other correctly.
I need the ability to disable BASS on video files. That is, if BASS sees a video track in a file, it shouldn't open it. I need to use BASS only for audio files.

There are similar keys in plugins that work:
BASS_CONFIG_MP4_VIDEO = false. This seems to work if the file has an AAC track. But it doesn't work with some other formats.
BASS_CONFIG_WMA_VIDEO = false. It works (but I don't have enough samples to test).
In BASS:
BASS_CONFIG_MF_VIDEO = false. I think this works if Media Foundation is connected (аnd not compatible with BASS_CONFIG_MF_DISABLE = true).

Here's a BASS_AAC update that should now detect the video track in those files:

Let me know if you still see a problem with any files.

Thanks.

I updated bass_aac.dll 2.4.6.3.
100067667.mov - OK
Haloid.mov - OK
mwsag_trailer.mov - OK
BASS does not play these video files. That's what I need.

But with two video files, there are still problems.
b64a.mov - incorrectly detected as MP1 audio
qtdivxwhitsubtitles.mov - plays video file as MP3

Added:
I'm sorry. I used Bass.dll 2.4.17. After updating until 2.4.17.31. All video files do not open in BASS.

The problem is solved.
