Hmm... Does anybody know why Fedora haven't included a simple midi-player, which simply sends things to your soundcard for rendering, which in turn plays it?? And does anybody know about a good such program?
Huh? Did timidity++ disappear? Or, am I misunderstanding your question?

Hmm... what if i (as many others) are so lucky to have a HW-based midi-playing soundcard (such as the AWE 64)? Methinks maybe they wants to use it...
Could it be possible to do something like MS does - in the gstreamer setup, give an option to either use timidity (with a full patchset - the patches included don't even rival my old SB16, and there is (as far as i have heard) plenty of space on cd4...) - or HW sequencer (including external) - if aviable. Then any app using gst (ex. rythmbox) could easyly play .mid.
But another thing - when i move my mouse over some music-file in nautilus - it displays a little note in a speak-bubble. Is it meant that nautilus should preweiv them that way? Seems like a good idea, but its not working...
