Getting bass.decls to work - HELP!

I have Nigel Browns bass.decls and associated bass.dll but I get a memory access violation when I try the included bass.bb sample...

Function BASS_GetDeviceAvailable(iCount)
	Local mBankIn,iResult
	
	mBankIn  = CreateBank(4)
	PokeInt mBankIn,0,iCount

	iResult = BASS_GetDeviceDescription( mBankIn )
	
	FreeBank mBankIn
	Return iResult
	
End Function

Any idea why? I *really* would like to get this working as I need to use the record functions available in this version. The decls is...

Bass.bb isn't a sample, but an include file with a bunch of constants ... furthermore it seems the decls is uncompleted, since most functions don't have parameters. I can send you my experimental Bass21.decls

LAB[au]

great. If I could just get one function to work using the decls approach then I would be happy to work on all the other functions...

*** SOLVED IT ***

Can get at the sample data from ANY input (internet radio, audio in, mic etc etc).

I am so happy!

If you want something done, do it yourself :-)

Boiled, since development seems to have stopped on bass, if you could take your work to the point where you can produce the definitive decls (and point at the version of Bass that it works with) and maybe a few examples for the Toolbox, then I for one would be very grateful.

I'm still hoping to get back to this at some point in the future and produce a jaw-bone-movement function which reads a playing wav file in realtime and makes the character's mouth move as it speaks, all totally automatically.

Hi,

the last update was in May 2006 so I wouldn't say development has halted.

I'm still 'playing' around it and will work on getting a complete decls working.

Out of interest I also have the WinAmp Visualisation plugin library working too, can even get it to draw in the Blitz window but it's not 100% yet. I don't think that I'll really be persuing this plugin as I cannot then sell my app.

Good you solved it, soory I had not more time to help you.

Lab[au]



Are you kidding? Your help was invaluable!!! I couldn't have done it without you!

Anyhow I still have a niggling problem.

It's to do with the FFT info. If the user has the volume down low then the FFT stuff is tiny and the bars drawn are tiny. If the volume is high then the bars are huge. I need a clever way of comparing the master volume to say the FFT info so that my 'meters' look correct.

I suggest retrieving the master volume and use it as a multiplier for FFT values. Use BASS_GetGlobalVolumes or GetVolume.

Hi any idea what the opposites of these are?

Function LoWord(Value)
   Return (Value And $0000FFFF)
End Function

Function HiWord(Value)
   Return ((Value And $FFFF0000) Shr 16)
End Function

For example when setting the record volume I need to do...

Adjusts the settings of a recording input source.

BOOL BASS_RecordSetInput(
    int input,
    DWORD setting
); 


Parameters
input The input to adjust the settings of... 0 = first, -1 = master. 
setting The new setting... a combination of these flags.
BASS_INPUT_OFF Disable the input. This flag can't be used when the device supports only one input at a time.  
BASS_INPUT_ON Enable the input. If the device only allows one input at a time, then any previously enabled input will be disabled by this.  
BASS_INPUT_LEVEL Set the volume level of the input. The volume ranges 0 - 100 and is given in the LOWORD.  

Woah...

this can add the words together...

Function MAKELONG(word1,word2)
	Return (word2 Shl 16) Or (word1 And $0000FFFF)
End Function

... but it needs
