BASSWV is an extension to the BASS audio library, enabling the playback of WavPack files.

WavPack is a completely open audio compression format providing lossless, high quality lossy, and an unique hybrid compression mode. In the default lossless mode WavPack acts just like a WinZip® compressor for audio files. Unlike MP3 or WMA encoding which can affect the sound quality, not a single bit of the original information is lost. The hybrid mode provides all the advantages of lossless compression with an additional bonus: instead of creating a single file, this mode creates both a relatively small, high quality lossy file that can be used all by itself, and a correction file that, when combined with the lossy file, provides full lossless restoration.

The WavPack format is used in the same way as any of the built-in BASS stream formats. Simply call BASS_PluginLoad(String) to load the add-on into BASS and benefit the usage of the standard sample/stream/user functions, or call the BASS_WV_StreamCreateFile(String, Int64, Int64, BASSFlag) / User functions.
