Hi Marco,
Sorry for not responding earlier.
I recall having problems with opening of midi files in newer versions of MuSE,
Rosegarden etc. This was, if I remember well, related to differences between
different revisions of the SMF standard. I'll look at your comments about
MThd and add it when I find some spare time.
If you have some programming knowledge you could look at:
http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/freecycle/src/midimanager.cpp?revision=1.4&root=freecycle&view=markup&pathrev=MAINTENANCE_0_6_ALPHA
Dont checkout the last revision but use MAINTENANCE_0_6_ALPHA cvs tag.
Regards,
Predrag
