The Dynamic Taste Detection patch for XMMS enables personalized music playlist randomization by adapting to individual taste using a specialized patch.
To use Dynamic Taste Detection, you need XMMS installed on your system. Once installed, you can use XMMS normally for a while before opening the playlist window. Within the playlist window, press and hold the Misc opt button located at the bottom, select the "Sort list" option and release the mouse button. Finally, click on "Randomize list" and the patch will take effect. This will make sure that any songs you have previously skipped will end up at the end of your playlist.
To install the patch, you need to first download it (named xmms-dtd-2002mmdd.patch) to your home directory. After that, you can apply the patch to the XMMS CVS version by running the following command: foo:~/xmms$ patch -p1 < ../xmms-dtd-2001mmdd.patch. This command assumes that you have downloaded the patch and checked out XMMS in your home directory.
Overall, Dynamic Taste Detection is an excellent software patch for XMMS. It brings a new level of personalization and control to your music listening experience, allowing you to enjoy your favorite songs in the order you want them to be played. This is a must-have for anyone who wants to take their music listening experience to the next level.
