Hi, I`m having a problem using BASS with some MIDI files, and I`m stumped.
I can load the MIDI, play it fine, and display the length in both bytes and seconds using BASS_ChannelGetLength() and BASS_ChannelBytes2Seconds() respectively - just to test I can get them really.
However, when I try to use BASS_ChannelGetTags and the BASS_TAG_MIDI_TRACK (defined at bottom of bass_midi.bb) I get an "illegal type conversion".
The docs say that "If successful, the requested tags/headers are returned, else NULL is returned", however I am not getting that far - Blitz is refusing to compile it.
I have tried making title a string, float, int - maybe I have to use banks and peek/poke, but I would like this confirming if possible.
I have also tried varying combinations of using "rp" instead of "midi" in the BASS_ChannelGetTags() call, but all to no avail.
If I comment out the offending line, it compiles and runs fine.
Does anyone have any idea why?
