BassCdBASS_CD_StreamCreateFile Method

public static int BASS_CD_StreamCreateFile(
	string file,
	BASSFlag flags
)

Public Shared Function BASS_CD_StreamCreateFile ( 
	file As String,
	flags As BASSFlag
) As Integer

Parameters

file

Type: SystemString
The CDA filename... for example, "D:\Track01.cda".

flags

Type: Un4seen.BassBASSFlag
Any combination of these flags: see BASSFlag:

BASS_SAMPLE_FLOAT	Use 32-bit floating-point sample data. WDM drivers or the BASS_STREAM_DECODE flag are required to use this flag. See Floating-point channels for more info.
BASS_SAMPLE_SOFTWARE	Force the stream to not use hardware mixing.
BASS_SAMPLE_LOOP	Loop the file. This flag can be toggled at any time using BASS_ChannelFlags(Int32, BASSFlag, BASSFlag).
BASS_SAMPLE_FX	Requires DirectX 8 or above: Enable the old implementation of DirectX 8 effects. See the DX8 effect implementations section for details. Use BASS_ChannelSetFX(Int32, BASSFXType, Int32) to add effects to the stream.
BASS_STREAM_AUTOFREE	Automatically free the stream's resources when it has reached the end, or when BASS_ChannelStop(Int32) (or BASS_Stop) is called.
BASS_STREAM_DECODE	Decode the sample data, without outputting it. Use BASS_ChannelGetData(Int32, IntPtr, Int32) to retrieve decoded sample data. The BASS_SAMPLE_SOFTWARE, BASS_SAMPLE_3D, BASS_SAMPLE_FX, BASS_STREAM_AUTOFREE and SPEAKER flags can not be used together with this flag.
BASS_SPEAKER_xxx	Speaker assignment flags.
BASS_CD_SUBCHANNEL	Read sub-channel data. 96 bytes of de-interleaved sub-channel data will be returned after each 2352 bytes of audio. This flag can not be used with the BASS_SAMPLE_FLOAT flag, and is ignored if the BASS_STREAM_DECODE flag is not used.
BASS_CD_SUBCHANNEL_NOHW	Read sub-channel data, without using any hardware de-interleaving. This is identical to the BASS_CD_SUBCHANNEL flag, except that the de-interleaving is always performed by BASSCD even if the drive is apparently capable of de-interleaving itself.
BASS_CD_C2ERRORS	Include C2 error info. 296 bytes of C2 error info is inserted after each 2352 bytes of audio (and optionally 96 bytes of sub-channel data). The first 294 bytes contain the C2 error bits (one bit for each byte of audio), followed by a byte containing the logical "OR" of all 294 bytes, which can be used to quickly check if there were any C2 errors. The final byte is just padding. This flag cannot be used without the BASS_STREAM_DECODE flag or with the BASS_SAMPLE_FLOAT flag; see BASS_CD_StreamCreateFileEx(String, BASSFlag, CDDATAPROC, IntPtr).
BASS_UNICODE	file is a Unicode (16-bit characters) filename (not needed with this overload).

Return Value

Only one stream can exist at a time per CD drive. If a stream using the drive already exists, this function will fail, unless the BASS_CONFIG_CD_FREEOLD config option is enabled (see BASS_SetConfig(BASSConfig, Int32)). Note that BASS_CD_StreamSetTrack(Int32, Int32) can be used to change track without creating a new stream.

The sample format of a CD audio stream is always 44100hz stereo 16-bit, unless the BASS_SAMPLE_FLOAT flag is used, in which case it's converted to 32-bit. When reading sub-channel data, the sample rate will be 45900hz, taking the additional sub-channel data into account.

When reading sub-channel data, BASSCD will automatically de-interleave the data if the drive can't. You can check whether the drive can de-interleave the data itself (or even read sub-channel data at all) in the the rwflags member of BASS_CD_INFO.

When using the BASS_STREAM_DECODE flag, it's not possible to play the stream, but seeking is still possible. Because the decoded sample data is not outputted, "decoding channels" can still be used when there is no output device (using the "no sound" device with BASS_Init(Int32, Int32, BASSInit, IntPtr, IntPtr)).
