Renxin Music Player
by RenXin
Renxin Music Player is a Fabric mod for 1.20.1 – 1.20.6 that lets players burn their own .mp3 files onto discs, play them from blocks and carry them in a portable player.
What it does
Players can burn any .mp3 file of up to 10MB onto a blank disc, so custom tracks sit alongside the vanilla discs, which are longer and harder to obtain. A music burner writes the file to the disc, and the recipes for the blank disc, the burner and a copied disc are shown in REI or JEI.
A stationary music player block plays discs placed on it, while the Portable Walkman is a handheld player whose music moves with its holder, so nearby players hear the track while walking. Playback can run sequentially, loop one track, shuffle or loop the whole list. Music can also be shared with friends in multiplayer, and the server owner can adjust the broadcast distance with a command that is saved between sessions.
Tracks are stored in the local .minecraft/cp-cache folder, so later plays use no bandwidth. Lazy loading and local caching are used to keep multiplayer servers free of lag. The mod is published for Fabric only, covering the six release versions in the range, and it is released under the MIT License; it is not open source. Installation needs Fabric API, and the latest file is 1.1-1.20.1 for 1.20.6, dated 2025-12-06.
