Remarks

This function can be used to enumerate the available devices for a setup dialog. Device 0 is always the "no sound" device, so if you should start at device 1 if you only want to list real devices.

ERROR CODEDescription
BASS_ERROR_DEVICEThe device number specified is invalid.

Platform-specific

On Linux, a "Default" device is hardcoded to device number 1, which uses the default output set in the ALSA config, and the real devices start at number 2.

Examples

Find the system default device:
int defDevice = -1;
BASS_DEVICEINFO info;
for (int n = 0; (info = Bass.BASS_GetDeviceInfo(n)) != null; n++)
{
  if (info.IsDefault)
  {
    defDevice = n;
    break;
  }
}
Or use the BASS_GetDeviceInfos method for more convenience.
