WIndows Media Player Cannot Play Midi Files

Hi,

I have a Lenovo Ideapad 510 running Windows 10, which I bought a few months ago. I've noticed a problem whenever I try to play a midi file on Windows Media Player. Whenever I attempt to play the file I get an error message with the following text:

"Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with your sound device. There might not be a sound device installed on your computer, it might be in use by another program, or it might not be functioning properly."

For context, the files which I'm trying to play are some Midi files on Wikipedia which are examples of various musical intervals (Example: File:Perfect octave on C.mid - Wikipedia). These files worked perfectly fine on my previous laptop,
which ran Windows 7.

To double check to make sure it was a problem on my end, and not the files, I tried to play one of the built in midi files located in C:\Windows\Media. This resulted in the exact same error message.

I assume that I'm missing the proper driver to play these files, but I don't know which driver I would need to install, or how to properly install it.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Charlie.

 

Midi files not playing

Hello,

I have a problem about playing the midi files;Windows Media Player always sends me this message when i open any midi file : "Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with your sound device. There might not be a sound device
installed on your computer, it might be in use by another program, or it might not be functioning properly."

I tried reinstalling the sound device and updating it but its the same.Also, this problem is not limited to WMP but also the midi sequencer apps.

I have Windows 8.1 on laptop HP Elitebook 844p.

My driver is IDT High Definition.

N.P. : Windows media player can play most other media files without a problem (mp3, mp4, wav...)

Thanks.

As a workaround, we suggest that you download the files and use Windows Media Player with the right codec package installed. To do that, you may refer to the support link below:
