Created attachment 668 Patch for enhanced MIDI playback functionality.
This patch introduces two changes to native_midi_win32.c, and the logic is simple enough that it could probably be applied to other MIDI playback systems without too much trouble.
- The stream-reading logic will watch for silence at the beginning of a track and cull it. Some MIDIs, for whatever reason, begin with 2 seconds or more of silence, which can make working with them awkward.
- The stream reader will watch for control event # 111, the loop marker, and set a new field on the song structure if it finds it. The playback logic is altered so that it will no longer stop playing at the end of a song if the loop marker variable is set, but will instead loop to that position.

Nice! I don't want to have a difference in functionality between win32 and the other platforms though. Is this something you can add for the other MIDI backends as well as timidity?
