Music Player

by HyCraftHD

Music Player lets players play audio from YouTube, SoundCloud, Bandcamp, radio livestreams and local files inside Minecraft, with a playlist and playback controls.

FabricForgeNeoForgeClient-side onlyApache License 2.0Open source1.12.2 – 1.21.1

What it does

Players load tracks from several sources, choose which ones to add to a playlist, and then start playback from a player screen. Supported sources include SoundCloud, Bandcamp, local files and HTTP URLs. Audio can be read from Matroska/WebM, MP4/M4A and OGG streams with the AAC, Opus, Vorbis and FLAC codecs. The playlist starts empty, so tracks must be added before playback begins.

The screen offers shuffle, two repeat modes, and buttons to skip in either direction, plus a pause button. The progress bar can be clicked to seek within a track when the source allows it. An in-game overlay shows track information, and the in-game menu can toggle a controls overlay for quick access. Only the client needs the mod, so a server does not have to install anything, and it can be packed into any modpack.

The mod depends on Fabric API and U Team Core. It is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with 12 release versions covering 1.12.2 – 1.21.1, and the latest file for each loader is 2.7.1.351 for 1.21.1, released on 2025-11-07. The source code is released under the Apache License 2.0, and it is open source.

  4. Seeking by progress bar

    Clicking the progress bar moves playback to that point in a track, where the source supports it.

  5. In-game controls overlay

    An overlay shows track information during play, and a menu option shows a controls overlay for quick management.
