Phonon

0.3.1

For Minecraft 26.1.2, up from 0.3.0-alpha.3. It adds everything in the 0.3.0 and 0.3.0-beta sections below: stations, playlists, the boombox, finding tracks by title and the new speaker screen.

Changes

• On a station, the speaker screen shows who runs it beside Now Playing, and the audio meter stays clear.
• Playback buttons say when they act for everyone, such as "Pause · for everyone". Locked ones still say why.
• Pressing Enter on an existing station's name tunes to that station instead of creating a second one with the same name.
• Long playback no longer grows native memory.
• Phonon's logo shows in the game's mod list.

Test evidence

• Target: Minecraft 26.1.2, NeoForge 26.1.2.80, Java 25, tested on macOS on Apple Silicon.
• 63 automated tests pass, and the scripted checklist passes in the real client and on a dedicated server: playback controls, several speakers, 1 MB cache eviction, resource reload, reconnecting and a server restart.
• Audio captured from the running client matched the source recording at 0.994 correlation. A test tone panned fully left and right, and a stone wall and water cut 3 kHz by 25 dB and 10 dB against 300 Hz.
• 46 minutes of continuous play on a dedicated server, with three speakers and a station, passed 260 checks with Java and native memory flat. A separate full run passed its chunk unload and server restart checks.
• Two clients on a dedicated server stayed in sync: -17 ms at late join and -11 ms after a seek.
• In the real client: starting a station, pressing Enter on its name in different capitals tuned a second speaker instead of creating a duplicate, the boombox screen opened, and /phonon add <title> added a YouTube result.
• The release jar booted into a world in a clean NeoForge install.
