MidiAccess inputs sometimes have incorrect devices

[allendotson]

There is no recipe for this one. Sometimes the devices are right, sometimes they are wrong. If I run the program enough times, the correct devices will show up and connect.

I'm on macOS. Sometimes they just show up as __Source0 and __Source1. I am wondering if these names are gathered when the application is ran. I have tried resetting the MidiAccessManager on an interval to refresh the device IDs, but that didn't seem to work.

On which framework are you on? Xamarin.Mac, or other .NET desktop (mono net4x or netcoreapp) ? I'm asking because non-XamMac implementation is kind of hack that I wrote by myself to mimic XamMac API.

Thank you for getting back to me. Actually, this is just a .NETCore console app. The only framework that is showing is "Microsoft.NETCore.App (3.0.0)". Tomorrow I am going to try to develop this in windows and see if I get the same result or not.

You're right. The Xamarian one works flawlessly. I guess I will just learn this instead :-)

Cool. I just noticed that Xamarin.Mac.dll can be used on mono net4x environment https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/mac/app-fundamentals/console so I will be adding that support at some stage. It does not resolve your problem on .NET Core at all though :p
