SoundCenter
SoundCenter - Music, Sound Effects, Webradio and Voice Chat for Minecraft!
Important
Development for SoundCenter is discontinued, but there is a great alternative that I like to recommend: MCJukebox
Version: v0.3
SoundCenter (formerly CustomMusic) allows you to set music boxes or regions that stream your own music, sound effects or webradio to all players in realtime.
It also implements a simple voice chat for Minecraft.
To use the features that SoundCenter offers, you and everyone who wants to hear music and voice chat must download and use the SoundCenter client.
You do not have to download or install anything. The client is running as a java applet on the website. You will get a message with a link to the client when you join the server. When you follow this link, the client will automatically connect. - Could not be easier.
Here's a video that shows how to use the plugin (Thanks to @jithins):
Development discontinued
Unfortunately I will no longer be able to work or give you support on this project. I am sorry that I couldn't implement all your awesome suggestions.
Thank you for almost 5 years of support, criticism, praise and blame ;) You are awesome!
If you are willing to take over this project, feel free to contact me.
Features
- You can set imaginary jukeboxes, cuboid areas or worlds and biomes as music stations
- You can also use WorldGuard regions as stations
- Stations can either play your own music/ sound effects, or webradio streams
- You can use a command or the client to play songs for yourself, all players in a world, or all players on the server
- You can use any supported audio file that is stored on a public webserver. Filehosters like DropBox will work as well.
- Supported audio formats: MP3, for webradio also OGG
- Everything is easily and intuitively managable with the client's user interface
- Every feature is configurable
- You can limit access with permissions
Extra Features:
- Voice chat
- SoundCenter adds a simple voice chat to your Bukkit server
- You can speak locally (only players that are not far from you can hear you. Volume depends on their distance)
- But you can also speak globally (The whole server can hear you)
- You can disable voice chat on your server if you don't like this feature
- many more to come
How does it work?
Okay so I have SoundCenter installed on my server, what can I do now?
It's easy: Before or after logging into Minecraft, run the SoundCenterClient.jar.
Now you can add songs in the "Music" tab, or add stations in the "Stations" tab. Boxes, areas or WorldGuard regions can be created ingame via /sc set <area|box|wgregion>. That's easier, because the box will be created at your coordinates. You can edit all properties of your stations by pressing the "Edit Station" button in the "Stations" tab.
For detailed instructions see the pages below.

Posted Apr 1, 2014"Client files
If you want to host the client on your web server instead of the plugins you can download the files here and modify the config to point to your server."
This is good :D

Posted Mar 22, 2014AWESOME Plugin!
If someone want's to test it live you can connect to mc.kaefgames.de:25565 thanks a lot for your hard work! :)
btw. It could be helpful if you can add an command to kick users when they wrongly disconnect or something else happens. :3

Posted Mar 16, 2014It's a shame this plugin has such horrible documentation and instructions on how to set it up. It may be an awesome plugin- but I have no idea how to set it up- and the only documentation is the commands- which when I retype verbatum, not onyl doesnt qwork but shows extra required information not shown in the command page! Maybe someone could make a step by step tutorial (15 minutes) just so people dont have to spam you with all their errors (90% of which im sure are becuse they dont know how to set it up!)

I didn't change anything in the port settings, in fact we were using the multicraft host and it was working fine. I didn't change a thing and it just suddenly wouldn't work. Voice chat doesn't work at all, by the way.

Posted Mar 7, 2014@maxiking913 Hast du schon versucht den gesamten SoundCenter Ordner zu löschen?
@Northwindyness Cuboids have an issue with the fadout range. set it to a higher value like 25 and the cuboid should work. I will fix this soon. Have you changed anything in your port settings before the UDP error occured?

Posted Mar 4, 2014Alright, I got the plugin going, but although biomes, worlds, and boxes work, set cuboids won't.
EDIT: Now it keeps saying it's not receiving UDP packets, what should I do about that? It gives this error:
[WARN]: at com.soundcenter.soundcenter.plugin.plugin.network.udp.UdpServer.run(UdpServer.java:63)

Posted Mar 1, 2014@WegFetZ nein im server log ist nichts. Er sagt nur wenn ich zb ne box gesetzt habe dann kommt das, wenn ich aber noch nichts gesetzt hab, kommt nichts. Nurhalt wenn ich z.b. ne box mit /cm set box 100 mache.
