About this Mod
AudioBridge
AudioBridge bridges your music and your Minecraft session by displaying a live "Now Playing" overlay directly on your HUD. Whatever you're listening to in Spotify, or any app that exposes Windows media controls, AudioBridge picks it up automatically and shows the song title, artist, and album art in a clean, unobtrusive widget.
Features
- Live song and artist display pulled from Windows SMTC (no account linking or API keys required)
- Album art fetched automatically via the iTunes Search API as a fallback when the media session doesn't provide it
- Fully customizable title and artist text colors, background opacity, scale, and HUD position
- Drag to reposition and scroll to resize interface for easy placement
- Album art toggle
- Automatically hides when music is paused
- Smooth fade in/out transitions on track change
Notes
AudioBridge is purely client side and works on any server. It has no impact on gameplay and requires no configuration out of the box.
