Bass.Net causes more memory leakage for heavy .mp4 files

Question

I am using Bass.Net in my application to read .mp4 data. If i use normal .mp4 file which is limited to 700MB, It works fine. But if it exceeds the limit like 1GB that is actually 2.30 hours of data. I am getting an exception and it does not allow me to make any process further. Can you please help me in this to resolve the problem ?

Attached the exception screenshot and stacktrace.

enter image description here

Ok, that's getting better, although usually it also helps to have the code that fired off whatever is throwing the exception. In this case, the inner exception is showing you that it's having a problem drawing the wave form, because the exception is getting thrown from a call to System.Drawing.Bitmap. Maybe the Waveform visualizer is not set to handle this much data. Can you try to turn off the visualizer and process without visualizer, and see if things work? — DWright, Apr 27 '15 at 16:17
i need the implementation using waveform generator only. So better I need the solution with that — David Bekham, Apr 27 '15 at 17:43
Maybe check Bass.Net documentation and see what the largest file size is that it can handle? — DWright, Apr 27 '15 at 18:11
