AirWebDisplay 1.0.1 — Forge 1.20.1

A major feature update bringing new screen controls, cinema multiplayer features, Picture-in-Picture, a redesigned interface, and significant performance improvements.

New Features

Curved Screens & Placement

• Added curved screens with 30°, 60°, and 90° presets.

• Added fine curvature adjustments using the same browser texture.

• Improved interaction and pointer accuracy on curved displays.

• Added wall, floor, and ceiling screen orientations.

• Screens can float freely without requiring a supporting block.

• Improved positioning, rotation, resizing, scaling, and transform undo.

• Added Move Screen Here to relocate a screen in front of the player.

Picture-in-Picture (PiP)

• Added a personal Picture-in-Picture mode.

• Move and resize PiP freely while preserving its aspect ratio.

• Continue browsing or watching while moving around the Minecraft world.

• Added Move Screen Here directly inside PiP.

• PiP reuses the existing browser instead of opening a second one.

• PiP is local to the player and does not affect other viewers.

Multiplayer & Cinema

• Added three screen access modes: Private, Room Group, and Public.

• Newly created screens are Private by default.

• Create cinema rooms and manage their members directly from the interface.

• Synchronize supported HTML5 video playback and playback position with authorized viewers.

• Only the screen owner controls shared playback.

• Added client-only screens for multiplayer servers without AirWebDisplay installed. These screens remain personal and are saved locally.

Performance & Video Quality

• Improved browser rendering and frame pacing.

• Reduced unnecessary browser painting when screens are outside the player's view.

• Added local quality profiles:

  • Performance — 720p / 30 FPS

  • Smooth — 1080p / 60 FPS

  • Cinema — 4K / 30 FPS

• Added independent browser quality settings for each player.

• Added GPU Upscale modes: OFF, BALANCED, and SHARP.

• Improved high-resolution screen handling.

• Added browser FPS controls and performance-related options.

Audio Improvements

• Added optimized vertical audio-range markers.

• Green markers indicate the full-volume boundary.

• Orange markers indicate where sound becomes silent.

• Added adjustable audio distances in blocks.

• Redesigned the audio-range preview with a compact information display.

• Reduced rendering overhead by using lightweight, distance-aware markers.

• Improved screen selection, management, and settings organization.

• Added anonymous diagnostic report generation for troubleshooting.

Stability & Compatibility

• Improved browser resource management.

• Improved screen persistence and supported HTML5 playback restoration.

• Separated shared mod logic from loader-specific code to support future Minecraft versions.

• Added additional automated checks and release validation.

• Switched the browser dependency from MCEF to Rinku.

Requirements

• Minecraft: 1.20.1
