A subtle difference between the ''XMMS'' and ''XMMS2'' acronyms is that, while XMMS stands for ''X (originally for X11 then Cross-platform) MultiMedia System'', XMMS2 stands for ''X(Cross-platform) music multiplexing system''. This decision was made to make it clear that XMMS2 would only ever be an audio player, and not a general multimedia player with video support.
