FAQ
Help! I'm confused and something doesn't work!
For more information, check our Wiki. Although it's a work in progress, it might have the answer you seek. Otherwise, report it to our Issue Tracker if it's a bug. For everything else, ask on Discord
How do I use my own mp3 file?
Doing so it easy, it just needs to be hosted online.
Here you'll find a document explaining how to do it with Dropbox
Why won't my YouTube link work?
YouTube links are not supported, nor are there plans to. You need to use an mp3, wav, or ogg file
I found a bug!
Please report it to our issue tracker
Can I include this in my mod pack?
Yes. Just be sure to link back to the Curse page
Where is the 1.7.10 version?
A lot of the 1.7.10 version was written before I took over the project, and did some major refactoring. The 1.7.10 version relied on some external web resources that may or may not be available, as well as contained many game breaking/crashing bugs. Because of this, 1.7.10 versions were taken down. There are no plans to support a five year outdated version.
Can I invite someone to the discord?
Of course, Here's the invite link

I Love Minecraft!
dear god i have gone through the ass of trying to do this for me if this would work with youtube urls aswell oh my god this would be like the best mod ever, reason i wanna rick roll people in minecraft i can't cause the mp3 oog all that is complicated and my brain died during all the tutorials
It might be a bit crazy but, could the music sound from loudspeakers be from ambience? which means having the same machanic as like footsteps and mob roarings etc.? cuz I have sound enhancing mods like Sound Physics in the pack, i wish the music sound also be enhanced by these kind of mods, just like the way it enhances ambient and natural sounds. If this would be restricted, buggy or impossible, that's okay ;)
You updated it on April 14, 2020... ANY IDEAS ABOUT 1.14? We are waiting..............
I've never gotten a single radio station I care about to work with this mod.
What a shame.

Is there a god to tell me
Did the author abandon the mod?
In reply to Dev_Enter:
I'm no god, but there is a discord for this mod, and continued development and support for later versions of Minecraft

I'm getting "Text/html; charset=utf-8 is not supported" when trying to etch a record. Using 1.12.2. Tried from both Dropbox and Google Drive. Tried from Github, and just got "Invalid URL"
In reply to JENOVA_Absolute:
Same with me! :C did you ever get it fixed?

can you update it to 1.13 or 1.14?
Does this work on servers? As in can everyone hear the songs that are played?
Any chance that the limited number of songs that can be put on a multi-record can be increased? I want to use larger albums but I have to split it amongst multiple multi-records.Nvm, seems adding em one at a time does that. The only problem I have is the song name limit. We need a higher character limit for song names. Some are too long for the current limit.
someone gotta make a new record or tape mod
not a fan of having to upload everything it's just a hastle
1.14.4? Or are you just waiting for 1.15?
How can I get a record to loop?
In reply to MikeWeidinger:
Maybe you already discovered it but for those who do not know you put a redstone torch to the CD on a crafting table.
the same when you return to the world or to the server you will have to put the disk back.
note: Very good mod is what my server was missing ;D
bruh support 1.7.10
