Hi Karim!
Your first example seems to work to me (I don’t do irrational meters everyday,
so there might be something I’m missing. I would probably write the tuplets
explicitly rather than use \scaleDurations).
\set Staff.timeSignatureFraction is superfluous, the time signature already
does that.
I’m not sure what you’re aiming at with the second example. One source of error
is that you have quoted ly:make-moment, and it wants its arguments as elements
of a list, not as a fraction, so:
#(ly:make-moment 16 25)
, not
#'(ly:make-moment 16/25)
But it is still not the right amount of notes in the bar.
