Hi,
Ive got a IMON VFD in my antec fusion case.

I now use the latest dll which is found here (https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...portal-1-1-3-1-2-1.95616/page-43#post-1061828)

When I use WASAPI in music section + IMON VFD I see an audio problem when using the VU meter in advanced tab. VU meter works, but somehow the audio is then 2x the speed or something. Disabling the VU meter results in normal audio, enabling the VU meter results in 2x audiospeed.

Can anyone confirm?

I do find it logical in some way I see this issue. WASAPI is intended to have the audio go to the receiver untouched by windows drivers.. volume settings etc.. just pure in = out. THe VU meter must somehow read the audiostream and could cause what I am hearing by doing so.. Just a theory. :)

    The newer version do not have VU meter options ATM.
    Hmm understand.. you will reactivate VU Meter then the fix for Wasapi are simple.

    Add in Basswasapi Init call the flag BASS_WASAPI_BUFFER
    Double speed should then be gone

    then ceck if UseWasapi get Sample Data over
    Code:
    BASS_WASAPI_GetData(nil, BASS_DATA_AVAILABLE)
    else
    Code:
    BASS_ChannelGetData(Stream, nil, BASS_DATA_AVAILABLE);

    greets

    Though the issue appears to be fixed in 1.6 if we are to trust the latest post so maybe that flag you mentioned is being used properly in 1.6 already.
    yes after remove VU-METER.. from Plugin to
    Also Plugin can reactivate VU_METER with wasapi on this way ;)
    If the developer wants it.

    inside MP i have fix this (for MP since 1.5 and Visualization)
    this are a Plugin Problem.

    Try that new experimental DLL and see if the REC icon is now working without crashes.
