I've been asked by my son to make a "Disco" on my server. Is there anyway to play mp3's or any other media type that are stored on the server?

There is not although you could use note blocks or you could use immibiss peripherals.

There's also the ability to play any of the in-game records in the disk drive. When the record is in the disk drive, you can play the song with the dj program or use the appropriate disk API calls.

Hey

You want to play mp3 files?
Convert them to ogg files and run them through the command block via a 'disco' computer.

Want to play midi files?
Use my music program. http://www.computercraft.info/forums2/index.php?/topic/14793-command-block-music-composition/

This thread has been dead for quite some time, and AaP is not the place to advertise your programs. If a question pops up that has to do with playing music and that is not over a month old, feel free to direct them to your thread. Otherwise though, please don't necro old topics here.

I read in forums that I should search for a topic before posting about it. That is what I have done and this is the page I found which covered my topic. I saw that the answer seems to no longer be correct so I decided I would prevent anybody else who follows the rules from being confused. If they come to this page they would get the wrong information. I didn't see my comment as much of an advertisement because the main idea was that you can play mp3s, and that's not what my program does. I added the second section, about my program, as help. If I was to direct them to the wiki page for the only existing program which will fulfill their task, it would not be considered advertising. I simply want people to know that the days of no music support is over now that the command block allows you to /playsound.

It's not THAT old of a topic is it? :P Your comment is very hard to reply to without making another unrelated comment.

Understandable, but please refrain from doing this in AaP. It really is quite an old topic when you consider the number of questions we get in AaP every day. This pushes down the new topics that have not had a lot of time for people to reply to. I'm sure that your post in the media section is plenty visible enough for people to find it on their own.
