What can i do to help you further? What information do you need?

EDIT:

If its scummvm specific things:
Im playing monkey island 1 and 2.
In the game specific settings:
-Audio tab: Overwrite global settings (checked) - Musicdevice = Midi Through [ALSA]
-Midi tab: Overwrite global settings (checked) - GM-Device = NONE - mixed adlib/midi mode (checked)
-MT32 tab: Override global settings (checked) - MT32-device = Midi Through [ALSA]

How can I reproduce your error simply using Wine + ScummVM on my Linux Mint without all the other stuff you mentioned?
BTW, I do not think that I can do anything anyway since most likely the problem is not with Munt VSTi but with some of the Linux component(s) you use. The hard thing is to identify which one.

Ok.
(1) Use ScummVM.
(2) Monkey Island 1 and 2.
(3) Set game specific settings in the way i mentioned in my last edited post above.
(4) In your player set midi through port as input
(5) Use your munt vsti Instrument with default settings.
(6) Play the game(s).
(7) On Monkey 1 the intro music is already broken for me.

Some things should be tried by you first:
1. Play the Monkey Ireland MT-32 Midi file with FSMP first and Munt VSTi loaded. Listen if you can experience the same problem.
2. Eliminate ScummVM from the equation. That is play the Monkey Ireland MT-32 Midi file with another Linux Midi Player through the same port you use with ScummVM so that FSMP + Munt VSTi loaded produce the sound.
Listen if you can experience the same problem.

Here are the MT-32 versions:

I dont have a midi file- the music comes directly from the game.
But i tested dosbox and the game doom with your munt plugin and it works perfect - so its a scumm vm thing.
And this is probably out of your hands.

Thanks a lot for taking your time to help me 😀.

EDIT:
Oh - i didnt see you provided 2 midi files.
I only tested Monkey Island 1 midi and like the doom music data from dosbox this works.

Have you also tried point 2. that is not using FSMP for playback but using another Linux based Midi player through the same port as used by ScummVM?
You should also attach a rendered part of the badly sounding ScummVM version as wav/mp3 so that I can have a clue about what you actually hear.
And a screenshot of the Munt VSTi plugin when the bad sound happened ( and a description about at what part it happened).

Im using garuda linux with cachyos packages + bore kernel 7.2.11.
To launch your player im using bottles with GE Proton 11-9.
System uses pipewire but the midi port im using is 14:0 - midi through port (i thinks its the kernel one) and this one is available as input to your player.
Normal GM midi from dosbox games (Doom, Descent etc.) works great. Even managed the linux openttd to send midi data through aplaymidi to your player - all working flawless.
Its specific to Munt plugin and scummvm linux version.

As variant , you can try use my solution MIDI Router, here very powerful filtration sysex messages , especially for MUNT from FalcoSoft ) , may be this can help you solve your problem and you can use my solution and solution from FalcoSoft )

Hello, I've been finding FSMP very useful.

I'd like to report a problem that has been bothering me for a long time.
I'm using Windows 10 with the taskbar set to appear at the top of the screen.
Every time I restart FSMP, the MIDI Text (lyrics) display shifts to the top of the screen.
This means that the adjusted display position is not fixed.
Other elements besides the MIDI text (lyrics), such as visualizations, are fixed.

I understand that the vast majority of people use the taskbar at the default bottom position, and only a small minority use it at the top.
This is probably a problem that wouldn't be noticed without someone reporting it.
I would appreciate it if you could fix the issue so that the position remains fixed even after restarting.

I appreciate the maintenance and improvements to FSMP.

Hi,
Unfortunately I could not reproduce your problem. I also use Windows 10 and the MIDI text (lyrics) dialog is opened exactly at the place it was at the last time regardless of the Windows taskbar position.
So something else is missing that results in this strange phenomenon. Here is my test video:

Thank you for your quick reply.

Is this a problem that only occurs in my environment? I really didn't expect it to be so difficult to reproduce.
I was quite certain that the misalignment was caused by the taskbar's position, so this is disappointing.

I've prepared a video to show you, as evidence, how it shifts.
