Re: playing a midi

[peasthope@shaw.ca]

Justin & others,

jp> # apt-get install -y mozplugger timidity

Oops.  Neither of these was installed until now.
A goofy blunder.  iceweasel now lists mozplugger 
as responsible for the MID File Type and a midi 
stream produces sound automatically.

Have you found a software volume control which 
works when iceweasel is operating?  The sound 
control panel in xfce4 has many switches but 
no volume control evident.

jp> TIM_ALSASEQ=true

Wasn't necessary to get sound from iceweasel.

jp> TIM_ALSASEQPARAMS="-Os"

Was already activated in the default installation,
with a few additional parameters.

VLC still doesn't recognize midi.  Must be a 
problem with VLC configuration.

Thanks,           ... Peter E.
