About this project
What does VLC VideoMod add?
This mod adds a unique ability to play your videos in Minecraft! When you first start the mod, it creates a videos folder in .minecraft. Using the command /start video *filename from the videos folder* you can play the video in a player that opens on its own in full screen mode for all players. In Minecraft, there will be a black screen at this time. To end the viewing, press ESC.
The mod only works if you have the VLC player installed on your PC
