hi,

you can import midi files of type 0 in midish (use a recent
snapshot) and export them back as SMF type 1. For instance the
follwing shell script should do it:


#!/bin/sh

for i; do
mv $i $i.old
echo "songimportsmf \"$i.old\"; songexportsmf \"$i\";" |midish
done


resulting files may slightly differ from original: certain events
are removed/modified/added to ensure consistency, system exclusive
messages are moved into the beggining of the track.

cheers,
