Mewsic-Bridge

by xeoniii

Mewsic-Bridge connects the Mewsic desktop music player to Minecraft, so a player can see and control playback without leaving the game.

FabricClient-side onlyMIT License1.21.11 – 26.2

What it does

The mod runs a local WebSocket server that links the Mewsic desktop player with the game. Once the Minecraft Bridge built-in plugin is enabled in the Plugins tab of Mewsic, the two connect automatically when Minecraft starts with the mod installed. A player who loses the link can use the plugin manager to reconnect.

Inside the game, the currently playing track is shown on the Game Menu screen, and the control panel adjusts its layout to the track details. The panel can be dragged to a preferred spot with the mouse. The mod suits players who listen while playing or recording, who would rather not switch windows to change a track or hide the desktop from viewers. It requires Fabric API and is released under the MIT License, but is not open source. The mod is client-side only, so the server does not need it, and it is published for Fabric across five release versions, 1.21.11 – 26.2, with 1.1 for 26.2 as the latest file.

Key features

  1. Local WebSocket bridge

    A local WebSocket server passes playback information between the Mewsic desktop app and the game.

  2. Track display on the Game Menu

    The title of the playing track appears on the Game Menu screen while the game is open.

  3. In-game control panel

    Playback can be controlled from a panel inside Minecraft, so the desktop app stays in the background.

  4. Movable, auto-sizing panel

    The control UI resizes itself to fit the track details and can be moved to any spot with the mouse.
