Ignore Webm and MKV video files

[v0lt]

I use BASS to play audio files in DirectShow player. I try to exclude video files by extension, but it doesn't always work for WebM and MKV (basswebm.dll).

Please make it possible to configure BASS so that it doesn't open WebM and MKV files that have a video track.

PS: There is a similar solution for MP4 and MOV.

BASS_SetConfig(BASS_CONFIG_MP4_VIDEO, FALSE));

To simplify things, the existing BASS_CONFIG_MF_VIDEO option is being renamed to BASS_CONFIG_VIDEO and applied to all file formats (so only one option needs to be set) in the next BASS release, with the relevant add-ons updated to support that. Here's a BASSWEBM update already now for you to try:

[v0lt]

I updated the components
bass.dll 2.4.17.41
basswebm.dll 2.4.0.4
I try to open mka or webm audio files and get a hang when calling the BASS_StreamCreateFile function.

Strange, BASS_StreamCreateFile isn't hanging with that file here. Can you reproduce the problem with the pre-compiled PLUGINS.EXE example in the BASS package (C\BIN folder)? If so, please provide a dump file of that to have a look at. You can get a dump using Task Manager's "Create dump file" option, and then ZIP and upload it here:

PLUGINS.EXE works fine.
I built the x64 version (VS2019) and it works fine too.
In the example the call is like this:

Code Select Expand

if (!BASS_Init(-1, 44100, 0, win, NULL)) {
...
if (!(chan = BASS_StreamCreateFile(FALSE, file, 0, 0, BASS_SAMPLE_LOOP | BASS_SAMPLE_FLOAT))) {
But mine is like this.

Code Select Expand

EXECUTE_ASSERT(BASS_Init(0, 44100, 0, GetDesktopWindow(), nullptr));
EXECUTE_ASSERT(BASS_SetConfigPtr(BASS_CONFIG_NET_AGENT, LABEL_BassAudioSource));
EXECUTE_ASSERT(BASS_SetConfig(BASS_CONFIG_MF_VIDEO, FALSE));
EXECUTE_ASSERT(BASS_SetConfig(BASS_CONFIG_MF_DISABLE, TRUE));
for (const auto pligin : BassPlugins) {
    LoadBassPlugin(pligin);
}
EXECUTE_ASSERT(BASS_SetConfig(BASS_CONFIG_MP4_VIDEO, FALSE));
EXECUTE_ASSERT(BASS_SetConfig(BASS_CONFIG_WMA_VIDEO, FALSE));

m_stream = BASS_StreamCreateFile(FALSE, (const void*)path.c_str(), 0, 0, BASS_STREAM_DECODE | BASS_UNICODE);It works for mp3 but freezes for mka.

PS: I found a bug in PLUGINS.EXE.
If I put basszxtune.dll in the same folder, the "Open file..." button does not work.

Are you loading other plugins besides BASSWEBM? If so, perhaps it's getting stuck in one those. Please upload a dump file from your test to check where exactly it's stuck.

Looks like the example's "filter" array isn't big enough to hold all of basszxtune's filetypes. I'll enlarge it.

Yes. I load a few other plugins. I made a couple of dumps of mpc-be64.exe using Visual Studio and Task Manager.

Thanks. I think I see what the problem is now (it is actually in BASSWEBM), and here's another update for you to try:

Thank you. Now the plugin works.
