Fixed Bugs (since version 5.0)

• The PLAYLIST_FORMAT_PDJ format is not included in error inside the enumPlayListFormats enumeration.
• When equalizer settings, stored inside a XML file or inside presets, are loaded into a stream mixer, the EqualizerLoaded event could return a wrong value for the stream mixer unique identifier.
• The SetPitchFloat method doesn't work after a video clip has been loaded.
• If the component plays the sound coming from 2 recording channels (instanced by 2 different instances of the Active Sound Recorder control) through the PlaySoundFromRecorderEx method, the second recording channel will be reproduced with an unwanted gargle effect.
• If the SetRewindOnEOF method has been called with "false" parameter, the playback of a sound range started through the PlaySoundRange method will automatically rewind the playback position to the beginning of the sound when the final position of the range is reached.
• When loading an encrypted MP3 file from a PDJ playlist a GPF could occur.
• Removing triggers, cue points or volume automation points could cause a GPF if the player is in playback status.
• The equalizer doesn't work with stream mixers.

• Under WIndows 7, if the control is instanced inside a VB6 form and VB6 is set to work in compatibility mode with Win XP, VB6 could hang when opening the form containing the control. It's in any case suggested to avoid setting VB6 in compatibility mode when using our control.
• When a trigger is reached and a fade-out (previously set through the SetSmoothingTimeLength method and started through the VideoPlayer.Stop method) is completed, the TriggerReached event for this same trigger could be fired more than once.,

• If tempo or playback rate were changed on a previous video clip or before loading a video clip, the SoundDurationChange event is not immediately fired after loading a new video clip but only when playback is started.
• If Tempo and/or playback rate has been changed before loading a video clip, after loading the video clip the GetSoundDuration method will return the original sound duration instead of the modified sound duration as seen for audio files.
• The SetRatePerc method for video clips is enabled in error when the video clip has been loaded without using the VideoPlayer.LoadForTempoChange or the VideoPlayer.LoadSyncForTempoChange methods.
• When a PDJ playlist contains encrypted files and the embedded fader is set to work with one single playlist, the second player could report a wrong value for the nItemIndex parameter of the SoundLoaded event.
• When both ASIO and DirectSound devices are listed, after loading a song from the Active Sound Editor control through the LoadSoundFromEditingSession method, an eventual playback could fail without returning any error code.
• When a sound is played in loop, eventual triggers and cue points won't be enabled again when the playback position is rewinded.
• If the output of a stream mixer set to work in mono is sent to a ShoutCAST/IceCast server with the CastingCreateFromStreamMixer method having the nChannels parameter set to 1 (mono), the resulting stream will result to be at double speed on the client machine connected to the server.
• Changing volume points during playback could result in totally unexpected results.
• ForwardSound and RewindSound methods remain enabled in error when the automatic fader is active with a single playlist.
• When loading files stored in memory, there could be a leak of used disk space inside the system "Temp" directory.
• When a playlist contains video files, the execution of the second video could cause a dead-lock of the application.
• When loading an Internet stream there could be a GPF caused by an error while reading ICY tags.
• When using a version of Lame.exe from 3.98 and higher, shoutcast sessions could produce white noise on client machines connected to the shoutcast server.
• Multichannel sound files are not played correctly on ASIO devices.
• Text to speech doesn't work correctly.
• Volume automation sliding is not stopped after a call to StopSound.
• After calling methods that return a unique identifier, for example the VST.Load, CustomDsp.ExternalLoad or CustomDsp.InterrnalLoad, in case of failure the LastError property will not report the effective error code.
• Queued streams don't work as expected when the related player is attached to a stream mixer.
• When a video player is attached to a video mixer, the rendering window of the video preview and the rendering window of the video mixer won't notify about mouse or keyboard actions.
• PlaySound method doesn't report any error when called on a player using an ASIO output device that still needs to be started through the ASIO.DeviceStart method.
• A memory leak is generated after enabling sound normalization.
• Triggers and cue points are not automatically re-enabled after a playback has been completed and the playback position rewinded to 0.
• In presence of the Microsoft ISA firewall or of the latest Beta of Microsoft's "Windows Live Essentials", the initialization of the multimedia engine could be delayed of several seconds (between 20-50 seconds) or to be totally blocked, causing the container application to be blocked as well.

• Silence detection suffers a regression after release of version 8.1.0.27 of AdjMmsEng.dll.
• After release of version 8.1.0.27 of AdjMmsEng.dll custom DSPs work correctly only if set for usage of samples in floating point quality.
• A vulnerability, due to a boundary error when processing *.pls playlist files, can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow by e.g. tricking a user into opening a specially crafted *.pls playlist file.
• If an Internet shoutcast stream doesn't have ICY tags, eventual metadata will not be detected.
• If an Internet playlist contains as first item a nested playlist, this nested playlist will fail to be executed.
• When video clips are played through ASIO, redirection to ASIO channels different from 0 and 1 will fail.
• After a reset ASIO devices are no more listed.
• Under Windows Vista and 7 playing a video clip loaded from a memory buffer doesn't work if the nMediaFormat parameter is different from MEMORY_MEDIA_FORMAT_UNKNOWN; as a further side effect, returned duration is always 0.
• Internet streams are not loaded correctly when ASIO drivers are enabled.
• A call to the GetWavChunkStringInfo method, having the nInfoField parameter set to WAV_CHUNK_CART_STR_TagText or WAV_CHUNK_BEXT_STR_CodHistory, will return a string truncated after 4 bytes.
• The GetWavChunkBinaryInfo method is not mapped correctly inside the type library.
• After a call to the Effects.CurveDesigner.SetPoints method, a call to the Effects.CurveDesigner.GetPoints method could return different values.
• If a volume automation procedure has been created without setting the first volume point at position 0, results may be unpredictable.
• Calling the ForceSpeakerAssigment method when only DirectSound drivers are initialized may result in a GPF.
