There’s a difference between diskin and hrtfmove. Diskin opens files for reading and reads blocks from it,
whereas hrtfmove uses memory files, where the whole file is put into memory and data is read from there.

Looking at Engine/memfiles.c: Load_File_()  , I see three possibilities for failure:

1) The file cannot be opened (e.g. it is not found, or permissions are not given).

2) The file length is zero: fseek and ftell are used to find how much data is there, and if
it is less than 1 byte, it fails.

3) The file reading (fread) fails to read all the data.

Any of these can lead to the error message you got (the code does not distinguish between them).

Given that files are being copied OK, I would think 1 and possibly 2 are unlikely to be the cause.

In any case, it seems that there may be a problem loading memory files. You can try to see if Csound
can open the dat files using another open (fopen? diskin perhaps) and if that is the case, then you know
the problem is not with copying the data into the local fs.

Thanks

Now that you confirmed with readk that the file is found and opened, we can confirm the problem is in
memory files, because readk uses csound->fileOpen2() and reads data directly from file. 

It’s not hrtfmove that can’t read it. The message comes from memfiles.c, so the problem is there.

Other opcodes that use memory files in the same way are the atsa opcodes. They should have
the same problem.

Perhaps Hlodver or Steven could have a look to see what’s going on. I would need a local build of
wasm, which I don’t have the tools for.

I should note that the hrtf opcodes used to work with the Emscripten build of Csound WASM, we used
them here in 2019 for a research project, so this is some form of regression.

It doesn’t look different to me: it uses fopen() and fread(). See memfiles.c:Load_File_()
