Vinyl

by joeedev

Vinyl lets players press custom music discs from audio fetched by URL, then play them on a jukebox or through a note block.

What it does

Blank discs come from putting a music disc into a Blast Furnace. A player right-clicks while holding a disc, names it, enters the artist and a URL to fetch the audio from, and can add a dye colour. Right-clicking a Vinyl Press while holding the disc starts the pressing, and taking it out again completes it. Only one pattern is supported at the moment, with more planned.

The audio is fetched with yt-dlp, which must be installed for singleplayer use. On a server it must be installed there, and the server sends the audio files to connecting clients, so clients need nothing extra. The author advises that server hosts should trust the source they fetch from before using Vinyl.

Vinyl runs on client and server and is released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, so its source code is open source. It is published for Babric on b1.7.3 only, with snapshot builds available.

Key features

  1. Custom music discs

    Players turn a blank disc into a custom disc with a name, an artist and a URL to take the audio from.

  2. Dye colours

    A dye can be added to a disc so its colour matches the record it becomes.

  3. Vinyl Press pressing

    A Vinyl Press completes a custom disc once the player right-clicks it while holding the disc, then again to remove it.

  4. Note block playback

    Placing a disc in a chest under a note block makes the block play the custom audio.

No per-version build data
Modrinth lists game versions for this project (b1.7.3), but the source data has no build per game version and loader, so the compatibility grid is not shown.

Use cases

Jukebox playlists on a server

Server owners can add custom discs to a jukebox setup, so every connected player hears the same audio.

Who it’s for: Players who want their own soundtrack in b1.7.3 worlds, and server owners willing to install yt-dlp and trust the sources their players use.

Questions

Does Vinyl need yt-dlp?

Yes. yt-dlp must be installed for singleplayer use, and on the server, since the server fetches the audio and sends it to clients.

Does a player need Vinyl on a server that runs it?

Yes. Installation covers the server and each player's game.

Which game version does Vinyl support?
