[Fedora-music-list] Timidity/Rosegarden issues

[A. A.]

I'm not sure if this is the right place to send this. If there's a better
place where I can get help, please tell me.

I made a rosegarden project and exported it to a MIDI file. When I play
this file with Timidity it sounds wrong- too much sustain on every single
note. The original file still sounds fine on Rosegarden though. I wanted to
check whether the problem is in the exporting or in the playing (in
Rosegarden or in Timidity) by importing the MIDI file to Rosegarden, but
now when I open QJackCtl it stops immediately after I press "start", so I
can't play anything with Rosegarden.

Another issue I had (when QJackCtl worked properly) was that Rosegarden
constantly crashed every now and then.

Can anyone help me?

Here's the output from QJackCtl, in case it's relevant:
