Hello,
I build an applet that plays midi files from a server. The problem is when I start playing the file (MidiSystem.getSequencer()).. it gives me this error in the java console and nothing plays:

SEVERE: null
javax.sound.midi.MidiUnavailableException: MIDI OUT transmitter not available

Here is the code to play the file from URL:

if(sequencer!=null)   sequencer.stop();

        sequence = MidiSystem.getSequence(new URL(songURL));

        // Create a sequencer for the sequence - here I get the Exception
        sequencer = MidiSystem.getSequencer(true);

        sequencer.open();
        sequencer.setSequence(sequence);

        sequencer.start();

How can be mid out transmitter not available? Is there a way to make this work?
Thanks.

Hi, I figured this out by signing the JAR file. Now the problem is I play the midi file but hear nothing. What now? No error in the console, all seems ok but I have no sound.
