People on #mplayer irc channel said nobody is interested to implement midi
playback in this player, 'cause, as i understand it:
1. it takes many hours of programming
2. it is an old format with no worth meaning (crappy sound)
3. mplayer stands for 'movie player', and not 'media player'
I am sorry to hear that, since vlc player, also doesn't play midi files, and
the timidity mozplugger didn't worked for me from box.
The solution that stays is to download midi file and play it with totem or
another midi capable player.
** Changed in: mplayer (Ubuntu)
