HI,
Can you send me a link to your midi file? Odds are it's corrupted.
I do this all the time for ring tones for my cell phone, so I know it
works. The error you gave is a generic error when QT can't read the
file format properly.

well it sure isn't doing it here.

Hi,
Nope, QuickTime Player will play midi files without any convertion
at all. Just open it up and play. End of story.

I'm curious how in Tiger you need to go about playing a midi file
with a .mid extention. I hear quicktime'll do it, but, you have
to supposively first, convert it to a movie file. That's way more
complicated than I wanna deal with. I just want a simple player
that is freeware. Even better, would be open source. I'm sure
things like Garage Band would do it, but frankly? I really! don't
wanna pay $79 just for the thing for openning mids. Granted, for
recording, in general, I am considerring it, but, not sure as of
yet.
Quite honestly, I really wanna try this trial that I downloaded.
Anyway, for just a simple player that I could have so I can
command o on the file from the finder, and it start playing, would
really be extremely nice.
Chris.
