Bass.CreateStream returns <0

[pinarg]

Hi;

In my Bass application I am trying to CreateStream from mp3 file or wav file however stream returns <0

using System;
using ManagedBass;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        Console.WriteLine("ManagedBass testing begins!");

        // Show DLL version
        Console.WriteLine($"Bass.Version: {Bass.Version}");

        // Start BASS 
        bool inited = Bass.Init();
        Console.WriteLine($"Bass.Init: {inited}, LastError: {Bass.LastError} ");

        // Clarify file path 
        string dosya = "C:\\music\\test1.wav"; // MP3 de deneyebilirsin 

        // Dosyadan stream açmayı dene 
        int stream = Bass.CreateStream(dosya, 0, 0, BassFlags.Default);
        Console.WriteLine($"Bass.CreateStream('{dosya}') → {stream}, LastError: {Bass.LastError} ");

        
        if (stream > 0)
        {
            Bass.StreamFree(stream);
            Console.WriteLine("Stream successfully opened ");
        }
        else
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Stream failed!");
        }

        // Free BASS
        Bass.Free();
    }
}

Code returns from output : Bass.CreateStream('C:\music\test1.wav') ␦ -2147483647, LastError: OK
Why -2147483647

Unfortunately, that decimal number just maps to 0x80000001 which is a generic error code that doesn't provide much information or context.

You'll probably get more traction by opening an issue in GitHub than asking here.

Alternatively, you could try stepping into the code with a debugger to try to narrow down exactly where it is failing since the library is open source.
