rmi2mid 0.1

Extract Standard MIDI file (.mid) from RIFF MIDI (RMID) file (.rmi or .mid).

rmi2mid

Extract Standard MIDI file (.mid) from RIFF MIDI (RMID) file (.rmi or .mid).

This is a simple tool to extract minimal RMID chunk from RIFF file (usually with extension .rmi or .mid) and write MIDI data to an independent .mid file.

I wrote this because my favorite MIDI player cannot read RIFF MIDI I collected many years ago.

Usage

python3 -m rmi2mid <.rmi or .mid> <.mid>

Unsupported format

Currently an RIFF file with (nested) LIST chunks is not supported.

TODO

• Write a chunk parser. PEP 594 is going to deprecate and remove chunk module from python 3.8 and 3.10.
