DiscJockey - an all-in-one custom Boombox solution

About

DiscJockey has been created with one goal in mind - more control over your music. Why settle for random tracks when you can choose what you want to play?

Another goal was to be an all-in-one solution for Boomboxes - why download many mods when you can have just the one?

Features

• A custom made vanilla style media player UI for boomboxes, opened with a configurable hotkey. Supports track scrubbing, play/stop, sequential/shuffle/repeat playlist algorithms, volume control and more!
• Custom track loading from disk - also searches for and loads other plugins custom tracks!
• Powered by yt-dlp and allows downloading audio in-game from any one of these sites!
• Fully Networked - every interaction is synced over the network - scrubbed a track? other players will too. Downloaded a song? other players will too.
• Other miscellaneous QoL features, like being able to use the Boombox while in orbit.

Planned

• Options for removing/configuring Boombox battery drain
• More configuration options, like restricting downloads to the host, enforcing a maximum download size, restricting downloads to certain sites, etc.
• Improvements to the UI, like a search bar.

Adding Custom Music

Simply drag any mp3, wav or ogg file into the Custom Songs folder within the DiscJockey plugin folder.

Bugs

DiscJockey has been tested extensively within my friend group, but that doesn't mean it's flawless. If you find any issues, please file an issue on GitHub here

Screenshots

1.2.1

• Improvements
  • Vanilla Boombox interactions through LMB are now smarter
    • If you own the current or last played track, activating the Boombox will now respect the playback modes you have set in DiscJockey (sequential, shuffle, repeat)
    • If you don't own the current or last played track, activating the Boombox will play the first track in your tracklist
• Fixes
  • DiscJockey will now accurately reflect rebound keybinds in the hovertip and controltip for the Boombox when using InputUtils
  • First time downloads of yt-dlp and ffbinaries will no longer fail and abort for users that have double-byte characters (JP/CN/KR characters, some accented characters, etc.) in their path or in their machines hostname
  • You can now open DiscJockey while looking at a Boombox even when holding an item
  • Fixed a rare case in which DiscJockey's audio can desync if a player holding the Boombox activates it through LMB while another player has the DiscJockey UI open
  • DiscJockey will behave significantly better with item interactions now (most notably with ReservedItem mods) (thank you @Rhapsody, @grandteki and @flipf17 !)
    • DiscJockey was originally disabling player Interact input when the panel was open - this appears to break Vanilla interact behaviour in some bizarre, buggy fashion. This has been reworked into a prefix instead.

1.2.0

• New features
  • Added a delete button to tracklist buttons - note this won't delete the file, it'll just remove it from your tracklist
  • New config options:
    • Permanently Keep Downloaded Songs - this will make downloaded songs save directly to your Custom Songs folder and bypass all caching mechanisms. False by default.
    • Add Vanilla Boombox Music To Tracklist - added the vanilla Boombox music to your tracklist. False by default.
    • Enemies Hear Music [SYNCED WITH HOST] - this was actually a bug that I decided to turn into a config option. True by default, but when False enemies like the blind dog and slime won't hear the Boombox.
• Fixes
  • Players can now interact with DiscJockey by looking at it even when it's held by another player.

1.1.3

• Fixes
  • Fixed issue preventing youtu.be URLs from being parsed correctly (thanks @Leader!)
  • Fixed issue preventing DiscJockey from progressing to the next track while the Boombox was unmonitored (not held or not looked at) (thanks @Kalem!)

1.1.2

• Fixes
  • Fixed folder structure when using r2modman
  • Fixed audio with a sample rate lower than 48khz playing back incorrectly (thanks @NotSoEvilDead!)
    • Audio lower than 48khz is now resample on the fly due to Opus codec requirements
  • Fix tracklist buttons not resetting indicator state when playback stopped
  • Made the download cache less angry about doing its job
  • Added fix to the Netcode patch init method for InputUtils soft dependency
  • Updated config description for Keybind to be explicit that the InputUtils binding takes priority over it
