BassBox Radio C/C++ version 4.00

BassBox Radio 4.00

Version 4.00 is a complete rewrite of BassBox Radio.

The original version was written with WinDev in 2014.
This new version has been fully rewritten in native C/C++ with a major size reduction, producing a tiny 62 KB executable.



Despite its very small size, BBR 4.00 includes:

• Integrated Internet radio station browser
• Favorites management
• Country filtering
• Embedded WebView2 browser
• OpenGL visual plugin support
• Realtime oscilloscope
• GDImage/WinLIFT composited interface
• Very low resource usage
• Native Win32 responsiveness

The oscilloscope and rendering system are fully hardware accelerated and continue updating smoothly even while moving or resizing the window.

This version is based on my own native libraries:

• WinLIFT
• GDImage
• BassBox audio engine

Everything has been designed to remain lightweight, reactive and visually clean without relying on heavy frameworks.

The full VS2022 project is attached to this post.

If you download it and test it, please give me your feedback.
I would be interested to know if you find any oddities, bugs, or if you have suggestions for improvement.
