I'd agree, and would say that the XML is simply malformed, so the musicxml2ly program is trying to correct it. AFAICT the output is consistent with prioritising the earliest elements encountered in the source, ie the volta brackets. > Import into Sibelius: > <http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/file/t3887/sibelius-xml-repeat.png> > > But I think there's a > <repeat direction="backward"/> > missing in the XML file at the end of measure 2 (within <barline…>) > > If you insert this, the missing repeat barline between the volta brackets > will even show up in Finale/Sibelius/MuseScore. ;) But if you insert a :| at the end of bar 2, then the bar sequence played becomes 1 2 1 3 1 4, so bar 4 still needs an open-ended volta |¯¯ marked with 3 for third time (open-ended, assuming that the single bar 4 is a placeholder for a passage of music).
