Thanks for testing it, David. What options did you use for midi2ly and
lilypond? My command lines were:
./midi2ly.py -o meter.ly -n -V 1 meter.midi
lilypond meter.ly
I only got one bar check complaint when LP processed meter.ly which
contains:
TrackA = {
\numericTimeSignature\time 4/4 c'4 d'4 e'4 f'4 | % orig
\numericTimeSignature\time 2/4 g'8 a'8 g'8 g'8 a'8 g'8 c''4 | % orig
\numericTimeSignature\time 6/8 c''4 g'8 a'8 g'8 g'8 a'8 g'8 | % orig
\numericTimeSignature\time 2/4 c''4 c''4 r2 | % orig
}
It was on the 6/8 line in the above which contains 8 eighth-notes.
I'll try upgrading to 2.21 and see if that makes any difference.
