Hmm - sounds like I should make it a bit more robust. But until I have done that:
could it be that you entered " instead of '' (a quotation mark instead of the required two apostrophes)?
Cheers,
Rainer

Dear Rainer,
I just found your site yesterday and joined it today.
The keyboard entry systems are really great, but I encounter a problem with both the Melodyhound and the one on Musipedia. I have installed the latest Java just yesterday.
I can play the desired tune by pointing and clicking with my mouse on the piano keys. However, if I create a string, e.g. : c"4 dis"4 c"4 ais'4 gis'4 f'4 ais'4 ais'4 f'4 c"4 ais'4 gis'4 g'4 --- using LilyPond notation and MS Notepad, and then Paste that text into the slot for Melodyhound (or Muispedia), I get an "Error on Page" message that returns this error info:
Line 1
Char 59
Error: Unterminated string constant
Code: 0
URL: http://www.musipedia.org
The piano just will not play a typed-in string, it will only play a string of characters that I create by actually using the Mouse to select each one. That selection method is a bit cumbersome to get exactly right the first time (usually because of the length of notes you select may not be right the first time) but if you can manually edit the string you create, then in one or two edits you have exactly what you want. (Similarly, inserting rests is tough to get exactly right the first time.)
Do you have any suggestions or experience with this problem? I'm running MS Windows XP and IE 6, with latest Java. I have Norton AntiVirus 6 running.
Thanks for any thoughts you or others might have!
RC

Well, it works ok on my PC. I'll try it on my Mac when I get home.

How to insert music:
Add a bit of sheet music, along with a MIDI file, simply by entering note names in Lilypond syntax between the [L] and [/L] tags.
For example, you can try what happens if you enter: [l]g'4 g'4 d''4 d''4 e''4 e''4 d''2[/l] (use the Preview function if you don't actually want to post this).
You can create these lists of note names by clicking on piano keys here.
How to post an audio recording:
If you just want to sing, whistle, or play a melody so that other forum visitors can hear it, follow these steps:
- Record your audio here.
- You should notice a 32-character hash code, something like: 2a40281c5001c5a7d8c9f57fcdeccfaf
- copy this hash code and paste it into a forum post, enclosed in the audio tags, for example: [audio]2a40281c5001c5a7d8c9f57fcdeccfaf[/audio]
How to mark a thread as solved:
If the original question in a thread is solved, please mark it as solved using the "solved" icon (or by just typing [solved] into your post). This makes life easier for people who are willing to identify melodies, since unsolved problems are easier to spot that way. If a problem turns out to not be solved after all, just write [/solved] in a new post, and the thread will be labeled accordingly.
