Cannot publish to MuseScore from MS 4

• Feb 16, 2023 - 04:01

When I try to publish a score from MS 4 the program crashes when it reaches about 8% complete. I also cannot export MP3. I get the same result. This score is shorter and has fewer instruments than others I have published previously. The file is not corrupt nor is there any unusual behaviour when I playback within the application.

Export to mp3 with Linux does not work under certain conditions.
Not exceptionally but often. I have several big orchestral scores where it does not work.
This has been reported serveral times, e.g.
https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/issues/15512
https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/issues/15419
https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/issues/15359
https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/issues/14613
and so on, and several times here on the forum.
Not that this has been given a lot of attention, not surprisingly.

Please stop saying this works, or it will never be fixed.

I have determined it is a problem with the score, after uploading two tests. I can upload it the old way but that uses the old MS-Basic sound fonts. The new fonts are the main reason I went to MS 4. I had this happen with a previous score but that could be exported as MP3, so I published to YouTube directly. Now I can't even export as MP3.
I am really disappointed with MS 4 now. One of my best score is completely unpublishable. I tried opening it in MS 3.6 and exporting as XML and then opening it in MS 4 but no dice.
I doubt that copying it staff by staff into a new score will help as the corruption is probably in the midi code.
Any suggestions? I'm glad I don't use it professionally, I'd be up the creek.
