New Custom Music Client Side Player Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I open the music player?
Press the default keybind (usually a configurable key) to open the music player interface. You can change this keybind in your controls settings if needed.
Where does the mod find my music files?
The mod reads music from your resource packs' music folders. Make sure your audio files are placed in the correct directory within your resource pack structure, and the resource pack is enabled in your world or launcher settings.
What audio formats does this mod support?
The mod supports standard Minecraft-compatible audio formats like OGG Vorbis and WAV files. Check that your music files are in one of these formats before adding them to your resource packs.
Can I play music while Minecraft's default music is still on?
Yes, but you may want to disable Minecraft's default music in your sound settings to avoid overlap. You can toggle this in the game's options menu under Music & Sound.
How do I sort music by resource pack?
The mod automatically organizes your tracks by namespace, which corresponds to your resource packs. Open the music player and look for the namespace filter or sorting option to browse music from specific packs.
What happens if I delete a playlist?
Deleting a playlist removes the group you created, but your original music files in the resource pack remain untouched. You can recreate the playlist anytime by adding those tracks again.
Can I use keyboard shortcuts while in chat or menus?
Keyboard shortcuts for volume and skip typically work while playing the game, but may not function when you're typing in chat or have a menu open. Close the chat or menu first to use the shortcuts.
Does this mod work on multiplayer servers?
Yes, this is a client-side mod, so it works on any server without requiring the server to have it installed. Your music plays only for you and doesn't affect other players.
Why can't I see my music files in the player?
Make sure your audio files are in a supported format (OGG or WAV), placed in the correct resource pack folder structure, and that the resource pack is enabled. Try restarting the game if you recently added new files.
Can I loop a specific playlist or only single songs?
The loop feature works on individual tracks in single-track mode. For playlists, the mod will cycle through all songs in order; you can enable looping to restart the playlist when it finishes.
