Bass_Vis News and Released Infos

[MB_SOFT]

A test can't hurt, right?
if working.. good, if not then leave it as it.

of course i can test it, no problem.

only i want say that i already tested BASS_Split_StreamCreate in my app and i had to remove it because it introduce some ms of latency and as i use real time voice speech connection from udp i cannot add latency. Ian confirmed there is some latency added from split channel.

ok
was only a question.. Invitation.
can only get better

But if you want to keep it that way, no problem for me.
Just wanted to point out

My ambition, BassVis must work.
If something doesn't work I can't sleep.

yes i understand me too i cannot sleep when a user submit a report a problem, i know the feeling.

anyway i'll do more test, i will remove all the DSP and VST effects from the audio bus and i will show you that probably the FFT return to normal. so the origin of a problem is a high sound amplitude, not a bug in BASSVIS.

[EWeiss]

not a bug in BASSVIS.

This is important, thank you

[EWeiss]

i send now a Mixer Stream to BassVis and it work as should.
see Shot.

Hi Emil,
could you please check if the plugins resources and handles are correctly freed once the plugin is free?

I'm not sure but it seems that switching viz makes the handles count and memory usage increase and after 1 or 2 days my app crash. The same happen with BassVisExample if you continously switch the viz after few minutes.

See the attached pic. Could please try to you and tell me if you see memory and handles continously increase?

thank you

but you can add Is_Free for testing and Log Message.
I can't run BassVis here for a day or two.

i was switching from WMP to winamp and the crash occurred. Ok we'll talk when you're available. meantime i'll do more tests. I'm not worry for the crash but for the memory and handles keeping growing ... he can reach 1 gb of memory or more so my guess something is not freed.

[EWeiss]

Ok we'll talk when you're available.

I am available but what should I do?

Hmm i can't be see any trouble..

test it only with two Plugin.. as example Winamp (Milkdrop) and WMP (Albumart3D)
and change only this without sonique and or BassBox.

it is not the task of bassvis to release the resources used by the plugins.
the plugins must do this themselves.

see in the video on.. see picture (after change a Plugin Kind)

[MB_SOFT]

ok i will test it thank you

[EWeiss]

ok i will test it thank you

that is what i do Free WMP

Code Select Expand

function TWMPHelper.DestroyVis: Bool;
begin
  Result := False;

  if Assigned(WmpVis) then
  begin
    if Assigned(_IWmpEffects2) then
      if _IWmpEffects2.Destroy = S_OK then
        _IWmpEffects2 := nil;

    if Assigned(_IWmpEffects) then
      _IWmpEffects := nil;

    WmpVis := nil;
    Result :=  (_IWmpEffects = nil) and (_IWmpEffects2 = nil);
  end;
end;

ok continously switching from WMP AlbumART and Winamp Tripex do not cause any problem.

So, my guess is that one or more viz do not free all the resources when BASS_VIS issue the free comand.

I will check one by one all the viz to find which one is causing the problem.

It's a problem in one or more viz not in bassvis.

I would use also some nice AIMP2 viz but i have no exemples to look at.

What is the plugin folder name for AIMP2 viz?

How they works? like sonique? do they render in my window like BASSBOX or in their own window like winamp?

[EWeiss]

How they works? like sonique?

yes AIMP used internal the engine from Sonique with some changed.

What is the plugin folder name for AIMP2 viz?

APlugins is the Folder

do they render in my window like BASSBOX

no like sonique: BASSBOX used a OpenGL Window and Sonique if OpenGL set to true, also

default rendering from Sonique, Rendering on your Viz-Window.

some Plugins.

but i think APlugins is limited in the Width, if your want test it.
I have implemented the interface but it is not so good

Hi Emil,
i have a question: the Songfile of BASSVIS_INFO how it is used by the viz? It's only for informations on the screen or the viz must access read to the audio file to collect some information?

[EWeiss]

or the viz must access read to the audio file to collect some information?

yes.

[MB_SOFT]

ok, i asked this because my application play all type of files wav, aiff, mp2,mp3, ogg, opus, flac, wma and also mp4 video files ... i don't think a viz can read any filetype ... can this cause any problem to the viz? i suppose that old viz only know wav or mp3 ... what if i pass an mp4 video file?

and if i do not pass anything as songfile what are the consequences?

Some visualizations work with the application and require the SongFile for communication.
Everything is rendered where a stream of exists.
If none exists then activate Render from Device

as an example for movies. mp4. and, and ,and

BassVis do not interest the extension.
Only the stream-handle
If you cannot create a stream then use the Device


Edit:
deactivated SongFile for WMP (play a file) can you see the Cover Support? think not.
some other plugin using the SongFile for analyze Tags and other stuff

see my Fake Winamp written in VB6 for a long time ago.
but will not be further developed
