Hi All,
I wanted to check out Freecycle, so I installed OpenSuse 10.3 on my laptop
(I had dificulties on Fedora and Debian). I wanted to built Feecycle from
source, since there was quite some info about it in the mailing list. But
I found a Freecycle package in the Packman repository, and installed that
one.
Everything works fine, -thanks for a great program!- except the export to
midi functionality.
The midi file is saved, but when I load it in Rosegarden it complains
about a bad midi file. The Muse sequencer gives the following error:
'Failed. Bad midi file: MThd expected'.
I checked the midi file format standard, and indeed a file should start
with 'MThd'. When I open the file in GHex I see that the file starts with
'MTrk'. Before I start trying to modify the midi file with the HEX editor
(and learn about the MIDI syntax along the way), is there anyone who had
this problem before, and found a solution?
Alternatively, If I built from source, which package is particulary
important for the export of midi files?
Thanks, Marco
