DiscJockey - an all-in-one custom Boombox solution
About
Why settle for random when you can choose what you want to play?
DiscJockey is a batteries-included media player and downloader that gives you full control over the Boombox. DiscJockey has a built-in audio engine of sorts that allows you to stream music over the network in real time - it doesn't matter who has what track!
DiscJockey has been designed as a drop-in replacement for Custom Boombox Music
Features
- Audio is streamed in realtime. It doesn't matter who has what songs, everyone will hear the same thing.
- A custom made vanilla-like media player UI for boomboxes, opened with a configurable hotkey. Supports 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
- A host of options to configure in the config - interface colour, disabled battery drain and more!
- Other miscellaneous QoL features, like being able to use the Boombox while in orbit
Planned
- Further UI improvements, like a search bar.
Adding Custom Music
Simply drag any MP3 or WAV file into the Custom Songs folder within the DiscJockey plugin folder. If your audio has a sample rate lower than 48khz, it'll be resampled at load - the effect on load time is minimal.
Other plugins that contain a Custom Songs folder will also be loaded by DiscJockey.
Expected folder structure
Note: the Custom Songs, Download Cache and Downloaders folders will be created at first launch.
It's essential that the discjockey file lives in the Assets folder within the Yoshify-DiscJockey folder!

Common problems
Config has duplicated entries
The config changed quite a lot in the latest version. If you're updating from an old version, you'll need to delete the config and recreate it by launching your game.
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
