NarutoLoading
Replaces Minecraft's loading screens, dirt backgrounds, and title panorama with custom videos and audio.
Also supports building actual video screens in-world.
Basic Environment Setup
FFmpeg and Yt-dlp
- Download FFmpeg and Yt-dlp manually and place them into your Minecraft instance directory.
- Required directory names:
ffmpeg or ffmpeg-win / ffmpeg-linux / ffmpeg-mac depending on your OS, and yt-dlp for yt-dlp.
- The mod will auto-detect them from these directories.
- Alternatively, configure the
ffmpegExePath, ffprobeExePath, and ytdlpExePath options in narutoloading.json to point directly to the executables.
- You need to enable
enableUrlForSourceSelection in narutoloading.json, or the yt-dlp feature will not be available.
Video and Audio
Single
- Put the video and audio files into the
config directory of your game.
- Edit
narutoloading.json and set videoFileName and audioFileName to the respective file names.
- Launch your game and enjoy!
Multiple
- Create a directory called
narutoloading-sources in the config folder of your game.
- Create sub-directories (name them as you like) inside
narutoloading-sources.
- Each sub-directory should contain a video file and an audio file named
video and audio respectively.
- Launch your game and enjoy!

In-World Screen Construction
Built with Displayer blocks or Item Frames.
Screen Size
Screens can be built in any aspect ratio and size you like.
Earlier versions required 16:9 or 9:16, but this restriction has been removed since 2.2.0.
The minimum screen size is 2×2, meaning you need at least 4 Displayers or Item Frames to form a valid screen.
The only real limitation is Minecraft's building height limit.
How to Build
- Build the border of your screen using Displayers or Item Frames.
- Make sure the structure is at least 2×2 in size.
- After finishing the structure, sneak + right click the two bottom corners.
- The mod will automatically detect the entire screen based on these two corners.
Right click any border displayer to open the in-world settings GUI.
Commands for Building a Huge Screen Rapidly
Make sure your render distance and simulation distance are large enough (e.g. 32) before using these.
