Re: Munt issue with Windows 10

I hope I'm done with the .INF horror... Now it can be installed either on 32-bit (including XP) or on 64-bit. WIll see if the installation can be automated (and possibly the reboot-to-unsafe avoided).

On a related note, is there way to donate to the Munt project to possibly raise funds for eventually purchasing a signing certificate for the driver or for other needs ? I know I would want to participate in that and I am sure I am not the only one . Hmm, it could be that nothing is actually …

Oops, sorry. An intermediate version sneaked in... Also, it's currently installing just the driver for x64 platform, so not finished, but still this is the "correct way" that makes windows to be mt32emu-aware 😀 Attaching a package that I just tested and it's proven to work.

It appears, windows isn't that strict at security as we assumed, it just made the process of installing unsigned drivers as annoying as possible... :) We can choose to reboot windows in the "unsecure" mode, so it will simply ask the user whether he wants to install an unsigned driver. Also, one now …

Probably, the driver installer can be improved to add more stuff to the registry so that windows admits that the driver is installed "correctly" and will not purge it, hopefully. I'll try to play with this a bit more, albeit not really sure to pull it off. And it appears that works. Just moving all …

Hmm, I think I've already mentioned virtualMIDI above. This driver and related SDK already exists, and it's cool and solid. But not free, so this kinda contradicts with the spirit of munt. BTW, with windows 10 2004 we should be able to run linux on windows in WSL2, that is with full support of …

sergm, Using the XML file from your archive above as a guideline, I was able to create the necessary task myself. Windows did not complain about needing a password. Re-started the computer and it works. Thank you! Unfortunately, it'll stop working if you e.g. attach a USB camera or a similar device …

As a quick win, here's a scheduled task that can be imported in the "Computer Management/Task Scheduler/Task Scheduler Library/Import Task..." to execute "drvsetup repair" (from the default location the munt installer it writes to) at the system startup. During importing, it should be configured to …

But as long as DOSBox ECE manages to work with MUNT included, I guess I can live with it. I see no reason for it not to work. Just use the internal MIDI device "mt32" and not a windows one. Although, I'm sure, the demand to have mt32emu incorporated into DOSBox will grow with this new windows …

This way has been working since MIDIYoke times up to now. The …

The better option for me right now is just to run the Munt installer again for whenever I need it. Quick and painless. Heh Even faster to run drvsetup.exe repair as I mentioned above :) Though, it might be annoying to elevate and click OK each time, so could be improved. Say, have a scheduled task …

Actually, there is a nice solution for it found quite some time ago by Tobias Erichsen . There is just one drawback with this approach: "This software is NOT freeware or shareware. This software is copyrighted by Tobias Erichsen". Although, using just his loopmidi driver for routing MIDI is way …

Amazing that it still works somehow. I bet windows won't let it to run at all after the next update. Still, I'm not going to buy the developer certificate for windows kernel drivers. Better be DOSBox implementing another API for connecting such software synth as plugins, or somehow. Probably, VSTi …

It looks like a similar problem with VirtualMIDISynth , which has been happening in Win10 since December. The MIDI driver is automatically disabled by Windows on every reboot. Peachy. I didn't expect windows to become any less unusable with the new release... That's why I given it up and use …

thanks for your answer. attached is when it DOESN'T work. I'll try to reinstall and make new reg files. Apparently, when munt MIDI driver isn't working on your system, the reference to mt32emu.dll is simply absent in the registry. I'm a little surprised by a claim that it works with a MIDI player, …

Hi Georg, It's an interesting problem. This may be an issue with the windows MIDI driver installer. Do you mind taking registry dumps when it's working and when isn't? The following commands: reg.exe export "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Drivers32" midi32.reg /reg:32 reg.exe …

Hmm, both of these FXs are GEN0-specific, IIRC. Are you sure smf2wav is pointed to a ROM directory that does not contain e.g. CM-32L ROM set? AFAICT, there is no way to make smf2wav use specific ROM files so it picks "the best" available. (I'm considering adding an option for it, similar to one …
