About this Mod
Recorder Mod is an all-in-one recording suite made specifically for Minecraft. Unlike OBS or ShadowPlay, it works directly inside the game, so recording feels seamless without extra setup or window management.
Features
- High-quality MP4 recording using FFmpeg
- Direct in-game video & audio capture
- Captures only Minecraft audio (no Discord, browser music, or notifications)
- Smooth audio/video synchronization with no desync
- Built-in Video Library to view and manage recordings in-game
- Simple controls with easy keybinds
- Automatic FFmpeg setup on first launch
- Performance optimized with threaded encoding and FPS-aware capture
How It Works
The mod captures frames directly from Minecraft and sends them to FFmpeg in real time for efficient encoding. Audio is intercepted from Minecraft’s internal sound engine instead of your desktop audio, giving clean recordings without background noise.
Designed for Ease
Recorder Mod is built to be plug-and-play. Install it, launch the game, and start recording with simple controls while staying fully inside Minecraft.
