Why can't I play .sht files through my MIDI player?

HymnSite.com FAQ
The simple answer is that .sht files aren't MIDI files. The .sht extension is short for .shtml, which is the normal extension for html files that contain server-side features. Many servers (like the one I use) are configured to work with truncated, three-character extensions to accomodate name length limitations for files prepared in DOS or Win3.x environments (like the one that HymnSite.com was originally prepared with!). Instead of trying to play an .

Why can't I play back exported MIDI files?

Why doesn't all midi-files play ?

Sokoban Frequently Asked Questions
Only one midi-file is playing. When next track is selected, nothing plays. This is caused by the fact that I am using relative paths to the MIDI-files. It seems that the MIDI-player sometimes "forgets" the current working path The simple solution is to always give the full path when starting to play a MIDI-file. This will be corrected in the next release. A workaround is to edit the Sokoban.ini file with an ordinary text-editor (notepad or wordpad).

What else can I do with MIDI files?

HymnSite.com FAQ
There have been so many questions on this, follow this link some "How To" pages to help you edit MIDI files using the Jazz++ midi sequencer, which is available on the web as freeware (at least it is as of February 2002).

Where can I find more MIDI files?

HymnSite.com FAQ
There are MIDI sites all over the web! Some of my favorite sites are on my links page. You can use any number of search engines to locate more sites than you can ever visit.

Use as much of the title as you can, but not more than you are reasonably certain about.

How do I get Apache to send a MIDI file so the browser can play it?

Apache Server Frequently Asked Questions
Even though the registered MIME type for MIDI files is audio/midi, some browsers are not set up to recognize it as such; instead, they look for audio/x-midi.

Your MIDI files won't play on my computer. Can you help me?

Frequently Asked Questions
Not easily. I don't know what browser you're running (or what version), and I don't know what sort of computer set-up you have. Do you have a sound card? Do you have the proper plug-ins? You might try asking the tech support people at your ISP; they answer questions like this all day every day and will probably be much more helpful than I could ever hope to be.

Videum doesn't recognize MIDI files. How can I play them?

Frequently Asked Questions
We've found a MIDI software package that works with Videum - WinnGroove.. Install WinGroove as playback devices in the Windows Device Manager. If selected as a virtual device, either will play back MIDI files through a sound card of your choice. WinGroove is shareware by Hiroki Nakayama.

I can't find the info pages/MIDI files/movies..?

Serenitatis v.7 (Summer 2005)
This site is a topical image gallery. The topic is Tsukino Usagi and Chiba Mamoru (and all their variations and personas.) That's all there is. There are many other excellent sites that offer information, multimedia and fanfic (just to name a few things), which is why I chose to focus specifically on being an image resource for this couple. Please see the above. There are also many other websites with full character bios and image galleries to boot; this is not one of them.
