Abstract

Techniques discussed herein improve a user's playback experience of a multimedia file by automatically adjusting playback settings based on change history data stored in one or more profiles. A system is configured to detect and collect information regarding changes to playback settings made by one or more users, and/or made in response to input from one or more users, during presentation of a media title, such as a song and/or movie, on one or more computers. This information is processed by a backend process on one or more server computers to determine predicted preferred playback settings for a particular user using a particular computer or playback device, requesting a particular multimedia file.
