MIDI Import issues (MuseScore 4.0.1)
I'm trying to import a MIDI file, and some rythms in tuplets are not imported properly.
This is how bar 4 is imported in MuseScore:

I understand that MIDI is an audio file, and MuseScore tries it's best to convert it into a score.
Some triplets are properly identified, but it gets a bit messy with others. Other programs, like midiplay, are recognizing all triplets without problem.

Personally, I avoid any music software which does not support MusicXML. Struggling to make sense of a MIDI file imported into a music notation program will always be hard work.
And having looked at Midiplay, I don't think that it has any export option to create a MusicXML file. See the website:

Yes, MidiPlay, as name suggests, is just good por playing midi files, but it does not have any support for import/export to other file types.
Finale and flat.io, for example, also fail to detect the triplets.
