Re: [fluid-dev] program changes in midi files

[Victor Lazzarini]

Hi Ebrahim,

thanks for your reply. No, I'm writing my own fluidsynth client and I  
am not using the supplied drivers; this was just a test.
Incidentally I found a solution for my problem, by calling

fluid_synth_sfload(synth, p->soundfont, 0);

with 0 instead of 1 for the last parameter, program changes in the  
midi file work as expected.
