    yes... i have the problem with mp3 on local disk.... rockstar works... i just mean if i change to wasapi , rockstar not work...

    And what is your buffer size?
    did you lower it?
    And what is preventing you from using Skip steps?

    Terra said: ↑ btw. Is it possible that the "Skip Step" option in the BASS configuration dialog has also effect if I select WASAPI as the player? It seems so because if this BASS option is enabled also WASAPI jumps. You are also experience this? Not really a huge bug but confusing as the option is only availabe in the dedicated BASS Player Options

    Yes the options are also available for WASAPI.
    I should probaly change the Text in the Tab to "General Player Settings"

    So is it possible to change buffer on live ? :)
    Could be nice to decrease it to 0.2 on ff/rew or maybe something else to do on bass side ? :)

    I can change it on the fly, but if i do that on FF /rew, then we will loose info from the buffer.

    How often do you use FF / Rew?
    it is not worth doing that, if setting the buffer to the right values solves it.

    It seems, that to avoid the 'trrrrrrrrrrrrrrr' when doing think over network or other thing, increase buffer is the way to do (i did the test with wasapi) i need to look if it happen with bass engine :)

    All that to say that yes maybe some user need higher buffer and then maybe run into ff/rew issue.

    I use it sometimes to go to the part of song i want or on big files that content 1H of music for example :)

    for me it's a BUG

    NO. It is not a bug.
    The buffer needs to be played. and if your skipping is less than what is in the buffer, you have the result as described.
    I encountered this issue in pre-release testing.
    https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...he-build-to-release.118963/page-4#post-994073

    Okay, so I wasn't very clear about it... but since nobody responded I thought it was just an XP thing. :oops:

    Maybe in technical terms the behaviour is a consequence of the setting value, however the user is not going to know that. Hence it looks bad for MP.

    1. lower the buffer as much as possible
    Okay... but default settings should allow FF/RW to work, and an automatic workaround that actually removes all possibility to encounter the problem would be far superior.

    2. OR use WASAPI
    Not possible in some cases (ie. the XP factor!). ;)

    3. OR use Skip steps
    This is a valid workaround... but if the FF/RW option is available people will attempt to use it, and IMO it should "just work".

    Many many years ago, I opened a bug report after I got that same message but I never got a reply. The reason was I had unchecked the Windows Media Player item in Windows 10 Control Panel > Program and Features > Turn Windows features on or off as I didn't need it, without thinking that it was needed by MediaPortal.

    maybe setting loglevel to debug might pinpoint the difference between normal and stuck? Preferable with as much disabled as possible also try to see if anything is happening during stuck for the mediaportal process(resource monitor, disk activity, cpu usage, anything) maybe other programs competing for resouces?

    I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...

    I have wanted to create a skin for MePo for years, but lack of free time due to other time demanding creative output (i.e. hobbies) I have not gotten past creating mockups of my skin ideas for when I could have time in the future. But, the future seems to be here now, with the AI explosion, good or bad. I've never tried using AI...
