I have a question about the BMP. What to do to make the program show BMP correctly and not report bad BMP data. Applies to WAVE file. Where does the program get fake BMP instead of the correct 1411 kbps?

Another day of file testing WAVE. On what basis does Virtual DJ show the wrong BMP of the song. And why it shows incorrect BMP of WAVE file. I think that Virtual DJ is a very weak program in this respect. There are still a lot of things that need to be fixed with this program, especially everything related to the WAVE file. I invite the authors of the Virtual DJ program to familiarize themselves with this problem and to solve it in the future.

What do you mean by BMP?
Since you mention 1411kbps, I think you mean bitrate?
What is the file size and length of the file you are looking at, and what is the bitrate that VirtualDJ shows that you believe is wrong?

I have a Wave 1411 kbps file from which the program shows me the BMP, for example 127.3 - where does it get it from?

I think you mean BPM, not BMP.
1411kbps is the bitrate of the files (the number of kilobits per second of audio the file takes on disk)
127.3 is the BPM of the song (Beats Per Minute) and is calculated by VirtualDJ based on the audio in the file.
These two values are not related to each other in any way.
(And for completeness, BMP in computer use typically stands for 'bitmap', a file format to store pictures, so not related to either BPM or bitrate)

Sorry, you are right, I was very wrong. I have one more question - is it possible to change in the window below - from BPM to Bitrate. Or give both pieces of information at the same time.

Yes but it requires a skin edit
https://www.virtualdj.com/wiki/Skin%20SDK%20Textzone.html
the action for the textzone would be
https://www.virtualdj.com/wiki/Skin%20SDK%20Textzone.html
the action for the textzone would be
action="`get_loaded_song bitrate`"

I don't know if I'm searching correctly but I have something like this - will I find the file mentioned in the post above here?

It's the pro.xml where the edits need to be made but you'll struggle given you're an absolute beginner. [unless you have a good idea on HTML]
Probably the easiest thing you can do is use a custom_button
https://www.virtualdj.com/manuals/virtualdj/interface/decks/decksadvanced/custombuttons.html
and use this code as the custom_button name
There are other skins that have the option to display bit rate maybe you could try them.
But to be honest, bitrate is kind of immaterial once you've loaded a track on deck, either it's a low bitrate and it sounds bad, or it's an ok bitrate, and you can see that from the browser before you load a track.
Once you've decided to play it, bitrate really makes no difference to the mechanics of mixing or future track selection.
I do make skin edits for people but not for home licence users.

I'm feeling charitable
lines
2008, 2013, 2948, 2953, 3827, 4062
all end with something like this [could be %Pbpmex]
You'd change to this
that will toggle between bpm & bitrate every 5 seconds, not toggling creates issues with is_video conditions that you don't want to get into.

You'd change to this
action="get_clock 1000 & param_mod 10000 & param_bigger 5000 ? get_bpm & param_cast '00.00' : get_text '`get_loaded_song bitrate`k'"/>

LOCODOG and ADION sincerely thank you for all your help. Sorry again for my post.
