Nasty Firewall Bug????????

I installed SP2 and it correctly identified ZoneAlarm and passed firewall
control to ZoneAlarm.

I then deactivated ZoneAlarm, and from the startup, so it was not running.

When I restarted the computer there was no firewall warning and I had a
session on the internet ...

I have my fingers crossed too !!!

Hi Flype

I am afraid I have had no luck with applying an FFT to the scope display.
I have succeeded in VB with raw code by "Deeth" (google will find it)
I tried to use this with your original program but no luck.
Deeth also has a DLL called FFT.DLL which I tried to use.
Then "FloHimself" made a PB ...

If the gang could add
an FFT to the scope display
it would be magic.

Don't forget to close when finished or there may be a big memory leak.
Each individual may be closed selectively.

mciSendString_("close capture", 0, 0, 0)


mciSendString_("close all",0,0,0) does the lot.

Hi Dreglor

No luck so far.
I am away for a week.
Often a break and fresh start might produce results.

That could be the problem, but with my knowledge of programming cannot fathom it out. As you say it seems to give the DLL the buffer as a word but needs doubles instead.
I will have a fiddle to see if I can get any results. Thanks for the clue.

Even more, sorry I forgot.

I have used the FFT display as a seperate part of the program.
The problem then is to save the incoming audio stream. The MCI commands work fine, but the sound card will not be shared in W98, so it fails. W98 will not do both at the same time. It is all OK in XP and ME ...

I forgot, I am not interested in hearing the sound.
Only seeing the display and saving it to file as already the program does.

The FFT display is used for tuning purposes in the Digital Program I hope to write in PB (I have it developed in VB6 and Delphi all OK). It is also used
to display ...

Yes, That was what it appeared to be, a very small buffer, 4 bytes. If it could be set to 512 (enough for satiisfactory definition) . 1024 would look nicer though.

The sound format I am interested in is
11025 ,16bit and mono.
This is what is needed in my program.

Hi Dreglor

I have been trying to make a typical FFT sound display.

If you search for "sound capture" by "Flype" as a past submission.

It was a way of capturing to file sound and at the same time it showed a"scope type" display of the audio. I have modified this somewhat for my own needs but ...

If you ever find out how, please let me know.

I saw some weird things done in VB which I could not understand.

The idea to allow a program to run after lodinng into memopry was to first load a fake program and run it. This fake could be just nulls and also has to be the exact size of the exe which ...

Sorry Geo, I don't really know.

I got this example from the PURE AREA site.
I downloaded the complete Code Archive
There is a wealth of info and examples there, a must have
for newbies like me.

I program mostly in VB.
When I can't do it in VB, I can usually do it and more in PB

Have fun

This works for me if it is any help

Hi again Fweil,

I have the program working OK now.

With the many files handled in the same way, if I put the file I wish to run
at the head of the list, it now only runs once as expected.

That effect seems only if the run request immediately follows the unpacking.
I don't know if it is a bug, but ...
