How to play a MIDI File

[Obelix]

Hi,

i have write yesterday a little game (Slidy). The big part is finished, now comes the funny part. Make fun design and add music.

But i found no solutions to play a midi-file. My PDA can play this files, can i run midi-files by basic4ppc, or have anybody a library?

thanks and regards

Hi Erel,

now, ich include the fmod library and on Deskop it works, but on Device it plays no midi-files. MP3 Files play the application on device and on desktop.

I use the command: fmod.play(path to file)

i have add the FMODdevice.dll and the fmodce.dll (ARM4) to the application folder on device.

Do you have a ideo?

I've checked it too, and midi files are not supported on the device.
I'm sorry but it is not clear from the documentation.
You will need to convert the file to mp3 format.

Edit: I've missed this readme...

According to the FMOD READMECE.txt file in the FMOD 3.75 zip "FMOD supports mp2, mp3 and Ogg vorbis in this release." I tried a MIDI file on the device and it didn't work
