Importing midi files - pitch bend range data is wrong

Hi

When importing midi files to lmms the pitch bend data is wrong on some midi files. The midi file plays fine in quicktime and mediaplayer (Microsoft GS Wavetable synth) but once it gets imported to lmms the pitch bend data range seems to be off so the song gets out of tune.
Same issue with other daws like Fl studio and Reaper. Reason daw doesnt seem to have this problem though.
Is there some way to fix this? Maybe a fix in a future version of lmms?

Thanks in advance

Thanks for reporting!
Could you give a link to a typical erroneous MIDI-file?

Sure heres an midi example:

Plays best in Quicktime, but works also in Media Player. Then try importing it and see how it sounds in LMMS.
