midi and sibelius/wine

[its_jon]

I have Sibelius 4 happily installed on ubuntu using Wine

Its playing back .sib files created in sibelius2 perfectly (midi I mean)

when I create a new score I have no midi playback either in edit or playback ?.... any idea where I am going wrong anyone ?

thanks.
Its been a struggle to get it up and running... I really don't want to fall at the last hurdle.

OK..... partly solved.....

I was scoring for brass....

None of the brass parts seem to have a midi instrument assigned through Tmidi ?

as I added a piano to the score... the piano was picked up straight away !

Odd that sibelius 2 files with brass play back perfectly though ?

so.... my problem seems to be that the link wetween sibelius writing a trumpet part for example and tmidi having that instrument availble ????

something like that I guess... what what tmidi thinks is a tuba is not what sibelius is asking for I guess ?


erm...

Im a bit lost

Hmm... after a reboot sibelius is not playing any midi under wine.

I booted into xp.... started a tune in Sibelius 2 assuming it would load and play in sibelius 4 under wine....but no midi at all in S4 ?

I think tmidi is started and stuff ?

or is it ?

whats going on.... geting myself very confuzed ..:confused:

thanks
