Jukebox Action Bar Fix
by Loedje
Jukebox Action Bar Fix corrects the colours of the action bar text that appears when a music disc starts playing in a jukebox, and adds settings for its colour, duration and animation.
What it does
The mod corrects a bug where the jukebox action bar showed the wrong colours. Once installed, the coloured text the action bar shows during a disc's playback reads as intended, and a preference adjusts the animation speed. Colours can be made more vivid, and the message can stay on screen longer than the default three seconds.
Settings let players and server owners customize the default options, for instance when coloured text appears during a sleep attempt through the night. The colour wheel used for the text was built to place each hue at its correct position. Since it runs on the client alone, installing it on a server is not needed for it to work.
Installation needs Fabric. The mod is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later and is published for Minecraft versions from 1.20.4 up to 1.21.4, with the latest Fabric file, build 4, dated 2024-12-24. Source code and an issue tracker are linked from its page.
Key features
Corrected action bar colours
The jukebox action bar displays colours that match the intended palette instead of the wrong ones the original produced.
Adjustable duration
The action bar message can stay visible for longer than the default three seconds of a music disc's playback.
Animation speed setting
A preference controls how fast the action bar animates, so the effect can be slowed or sped up to taste.
Vivid colour option
An option makes the action bar colours stronger, and a colourful text mode can be enabled for the messages shown during sleep.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Players on Fabric who play music discs in a jukebox and want the action bar colours to look correct. Players on any version from 1.20.4 up to 1.21.4 can use it.
How it compares
Client-side Custom Music Disc Fix is also client-side only and open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, published for Fabric across 1.20.1 – 26.3. Boss Bar Begone is client-side only on Fabric for 1.20.1, and it is not open source, being released under All rights reserved, so it covers a different part of the interface.

What the author says
This mod fixes bug report MC-132961. This bug causes the colour changing text that says which disc is playing, to suddenly stop changing colours. In horror I quickly fixed this bug by making a small change in the code. This worked, but still, I was not satisfied. I tried raising the chromacity, but it just didn't…
