This mod lets you play music from URLs in Minecraft, to listen with your friends and enhance any kind of builds you make!
Everything is built to work with Create, so you have to use rotational power to make the music play, and make special records, named Ethereal Records.
Playback is also fully compatible with contraptions, so you can have moving speakers, on elevators, trains, or anything else you can think of!
- You can play music from urls, currently YouTube (and YoutubeMusic) are directly supported, but other sources should work fine
- For the Andesite Jukebox, playback pitch depends on the input rotation speed, half the maximum speed plays at normal pitch
- For adding music from URLs, you must use a Record Press Base
- When you craft an Ethereal Record, and no url is provided, it will play the music from the music disc you used to craft it
- Display links can show the currently playing song
- Jukebox supports loop mode when redstone powered
- Mechanical arms know when they can extract a record (when a song finishes) and insert a new one, for automated music systems
- Each music disc type has some special audio effects in it
- Pitch on contraption depends on contraption speed
- Audio is synchronized between players in multiplayer
- A lot more record types with unique audio effects
- Programmable Ethereal Record, with custom audio effects
- More directly supported platforms
- Brass jukebox, with configurable pitch, range and record collections
- Speakers and audio routing, for more controlled audio systems
- Direct integration with Valkyrien Skies 2
This mod uses ytdlp for retrieving the stream link, then this link is sent to ffmpeg which handles the transcoding in PCM format and then the audio is sent after the processing chain to native minecraft channels
It should be compatible natively with other audio handling mods since its using Minecraft directly for playing sounds, and not accessing to OpenAL
Important
NO AUDIO is being streamed server to client and never will; clients themselves stream the audio from the original source, as they're watching/playing it from their browsers.
Since this mod relies on ffmpeg, and ytdlp, it can download from official and trusted sources these binaries, asking you for permission first. If you don't want this, you can provide your own binaries by placing them in the correct folder (displayed on the mod if you choose manual installation). The code is completely open source, and transparency is important to me, since it's downloading and executing external binaries on your computer.
Caution
Only TRUST the official releases of this mod! This is very important. You can contact me personally on discord if you have any doubts about the authenticity of a release.
