BASS_CONFIG_NET_TIMEOUT config option

The time to wait for a server to respond to a connection request.

BASS_SetConfig(
    BASS_CONFIG_NET_TIMEOUT,
    DWORD timeout
);

Parameters

Remarks

The BASS_CONFIG_THREAD flag can be used to make the setting specific to the current thread. When that is non-zero, it will override the global setting in the current thread.

When playlist processing is enabled via the BASS_CONFIG_NET_PLAYLIST option, the timeout applies to each playlist entry rather than the playlist as a whole.

Example

BASS_SetConfig(BASS_CONFIG_NET_TIMEOUT, 3000);

Set the timeout to 3 seconds only for one stream in the current thread.

BASS_SetConfig(BASS_CONFIG_NET_TIMEOUT | BASS_CONFIG_THREAD, 3000); // set the thread's timeout
HSTREAM stream = BASS_StreamCreateURL(url, 0, 0, NULL, NULL);
BASS_SetConfig(BASS_CONFIG_NET_TIMEOUT | BASS_CONFIG_THREAD, 0); // reset to the global timeout
