explain a bit more about this "default tone generator" for XMMS?

I assume that woule be using tone://[insert freq here] so that people have something to test their sound setup without downloading some audio file, etc.

That makes sense. Thanks

The tone genertor, sample sound, was actually user, piccolo's, suggestion. It is indeed to test sound without any local sound file or net connection to fetch one.

Aha, OK I see it's a custom version of XMMS then. :cool:

Not a custom version of XMMS. Just a "play location" default.
If you select play location in xmms and enter
tone://1000

then you have a test sound playing.

So, I added this "url_history" to .xmms/config
Now you have xmms loaded with a default test sound, sans sound file.
