Hello !

It's seem strange for me:

No possibilities to export to the open format "OMF" [aka: "Open Media Framework Interchange"] for working with others musicians our musics ?

Because they can't read our lovely MMP and MMPZ format !
Thank you for them !

I see your post as a feature-request. I must admit that i did not know about OMF, but if OMF is a genuine standard, then it would be beneficial to be able to export in OMF.
------------------
I have looked at this, and it seems to be a video-interchange format.
The primary objective of OMFI is video production. However, there are a number of additional features which can be listed as follows:
* The origin of the data can be easily backtracked or identified since the import material is the form of a videotape or film.
* There are predefined effects and transitions which paves way for easy and quick overlapping and sequencing of various track.
* The format supports motion control. (i.e. enabling a particular segment to play at a ratio of the speed of another segment)


The input files are video-files. Lmms has no video capabilities and none are meant to added -Afaik, so OMF support would not make sense
