Hi,

I am not able to play MIDI files with XMMS or KMID.

I'm running vmlinuz-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6xen on an AMD x86_64 box. My
sound card is on the motherboard and is an nForce3 AC'97. I added
AMIDI-plug 0.6 to XMMS. I'm using ALSA backend 0.8, which outputs to
Midi Through at port 14:0. My mixer setting is 0:Synth:0. The
Alsamixer shows PCM as turned on. MIDI music appears to play, but no
sound comes out. XMMS does play some other formats, like ogg.

Thanks for helping to figure out how to configure xmms so as to be
able to play MIDI files.

I run timidity++ in daemon mode (timidity -iAD).

As user, or as root?

You may run it as user.

It creates a new MIDI
device, which I then select as the default MIDI device in KDE Control
Center.

Where in Control Center?

Sound & Multimedia -> Sound System -> Hardware
In "Select MIDI device" there will be a device named "Timidity port 0 -
ALSA device". Select it as the default MIDI device and apply your changes.
KDE applications will play MIDI now, regardless your sound card has
hardware wavetable suport or not. No soundfont loading is needed for
timidity.

Interesting. Without running the daemon, my Audigy soundcard settings are
used, and you are right - the tracks play without the extra step of selecting
a soundfont. Nice.

Thanks

Anne
