Every time I save a song in BIAB 2023, I get an error message "Exception. EOS error in module bbw64.exe etc..."
I have the latest windows update installed. When I open the file again it seems fine. Any ideas?

I think we need more information than "EOS error in module bbw64.exe etc"
Send the complete error message to PG Music Support.

Also, your post implies that the song is actually being saved, then you get the error message. Is that correct?

Are you saving it to a USB drive? If so, have you turned off Selective Suspend in the Control Panel power options for USB devices?

In the past PGMusic has recommened the following when the message occurs:

Quote:
Try running Band-in-a-Box as administrator. You can do this by right clicking on the Band-in-a-Box shortcut and selecting Run as administrator. Do you still experience the access violation error?


Not sure if this is still applicable with Win 11 and 2023?

I think it is still applicable. I looked up EOS Error in Windows and got nowhere, so we do need the details in the “etc” part of the error message.

And yes, Access Violations can often be solved by Run as Administrator. Good idea. We just don’t know yet if that’s the error here.

Thanks Matt.
Yes it gets saved to a USB drive and always has.
I didn't have that message before I updated to version 1006 a week or so ago.

Thanks. I tried that yesterday but it didn't make a difference.

Oh! That’s important, that it started with build 1006.

I’ll pass this along to the developers.

Thanks again Matt. The etc. part is as follows:

The tech people have just asked me to go back and install 1004 and 1006 upgrades but I assume that will mean I will lose the latest 1006.

Ok. I take that to mean they want to check that something did indeed change between build 1004 and 1006. Do the experiment and report back.

I installed 1004 and then reinstalled 1006. Great! So far no error messages.
Thanks for your suggs. Case closed (fingers crossed).

What device do you use for Audio on the computer? E.g. is it a separate sound card or external hardware?

I don't think this bug is specifically caused by build 1006, so you might notice it returning. It is more likely related to the song and/or style that you are using. If any of the RealTracks names in the Mixer are preceded by N/A then it is more likely to happen. This can usually be resolved by clicking on Rebuild and Fix inside the RealTracks Picker - assuming all the RealTracks in the song are actually installed but Band-in-a-Box just needs to find them.

The bug will be fixed in build 1007.

Thanks Blake for investigating and providing feedback on the potential cause. It's appreciated. It's always good to know the fundamental cause of issues, especially ones that go away by themselves ('cause they come back by themselves too!).
