BASS and VBRI headers

Hello!

Does BASS support VBRI headers beside Xing or not? If not, will the file stop after the estimated time is reached or will BASS play until the EOF is reached (like Winamp does)?

Yes, BASS does support VBRI headers to get the stream length.

BASS also always plays to the end of the file, with the estimated length being updated to the actual length at the end. See the BASS_StreamGetLength docs :)

XLNT! ;D

By the way, do you have some information about VBRI headers? I have found a document which explains which flags are stored after the Xing header, but I don't have any information about VBRI.

I don't think official documentation of "VBRI" has ever been released, but here's some useful info...
