MIDI_Bar Error Message

I have just recently installed MIDI_Ox on my XP Computer. When using MIDI Ox, and using the EMUKx MIDI port (9000) for both input and output, I can both send and receive MIDI data from an external keyboard (when I use the computer keyboard as an input - to output MIDI data) However, when attempting to output a MIDI file from the MIDI_Bar to the same port!!! an error message appears; There are no MIDI devices installed on the system. To install ........ etc. Seeing that the port obviously works, sending the computer keyboard generated information, why doesn't the MIDI_Bar output work through the same port?? Your help would be greatly appreciated. Best regards, Barry Wilkinson

MIDI Bar uses the Windows MCI interface to connect to and PlayBack a MIDI Sequence. It is possible that your MCI Sequencer codec is not installed or misconfigured.

Dear Jamie O'Connel. Thank you for your reply! Unfortunately, I cannot find any reference to an MCI device on my Computer, or in the Control Panel. What next?? Best regards, Barry Wilkinson.

I see it under Control Panel | Sounds and Audio Devices [Hardware] | Media Control Devices [Properties] [Properties] mciseq.dll. If that's not there, I don't know of a way to get it other than a re-install of Windows, although there may be other methods.

Dear Jamie O'Connel Many thanks for your persistence! I found the .dll file OK, but is my face red! It really helps when you tell the MIDI Bar what port to use!!!! Unfortunately, I assumed that MIDI Bar was a subset of MIDI Ox - wrong again! End of problem - best regards, Barry Wilkinson.
