           Summary: switch midi support from libwildmidi to libfluidsynth
                    or libtimidity
    Classification: Platform
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins-bad
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

         QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
     GNOME version: ---


as above. gus patches (as used in wildmidi) are so much poorer in soundquality
than sf2 soundfonts used in fluidynth or timidity. It's just not up date. Also
there are so many more soundfonts available than gus patches.
Both gnome and kde use gstreamer for multimedia support, so providing a
high-quality midi support would be very important for the further fostering of
Linux on desktops.
