*I do not have time for modding at the moment, or any time in the foreseeable future, so take this as written permission to anyone who would like to continue this mod to do so. Just send me a PM and I'll send you the source code. As I cannot seem to find the problem with the jukebox looping, as it works just fine in MCP, whomever would like to do so is allowed to try to fix said issue. My one concern is to mention me in any posts continuing the mod but that is all.
Overview
This mod adds a new block called the "Redstone Jukebox". This block is essentially a jukebox that will play one of the five records contained inside it (there are buttons below each slot to manually choose the each one) when it is powered by redstone or by a switching mechanism such as levers, pressure plates or a stone button. As long as it is powered, it will loop through the records indefinitely, making it great for adventure maps and can be implemented by map makers (please message me before you do implement it).

Changelog
V3 - Jukebox can now carry up to 5 records and loops through them accordingly. Bug fixes as well as a new "streamlined texture" as to no be intrusive on Minecraft's visual art style (by this I mean I removed the flashy top texture).
V2 - Bug fix and added to creative menu
V1 - Initial release.

The jukebox isn't looping as it should*
Sadly no, I might be able to implement that in a later update but it will require some trickery with finding the length of each song exactly. If I do though, I will probably have a toggleable button within the GUI to turn repeat on or off.

Thanks for the feedback.
I don't know what the coding for minecraft is like but in c++ you would code it like:
if power=on: play music
if power=on/music ends: use command above
Awesome idea
heres a suggestion just to help with us players wanting to switch the tracks without putting in and out the disc
To make it fit in the crafting table 3 (any of the records even repeats) records need to be combined to make a record stack a part of the crafting
Then 3 of the record stacks need to be put in the 3x3 grind along with a non stacked record (in this case a real record like cat) in this manner
Legend-
® = Real Record
[r] = Record stack
{r} = Redstone
(J) = Jukebox normal
Recipe:
{r}(J){r}
{r}®{r}
[r] [r] [r]
It would be awesome to have this (though it may seem of a challenge to code idk but I understand if you find it hard to make this)
To change the track just apply a redstone current to it (by means of a button/lever/Pressure Pad)

I'm not sure I understand, but I was thinking that after I implement the looping tracks into the mod, I could make it have 9 slots or so that, when the one before it had finished the record, it would play. If the slot was empty or had a non-record item it would just skip to the next occupied slot. Here's the gui I might use if I do this:
The little red dot below the slot would light up when the record above it is playing.
This seems like a handy, well done mod. It even has Minecraft-style art
If you need help with getting songs to repeat, Paraknight has done a similar mod called "Boombox", and you could try and get his help for getting a repeat switch/option.
This is a good mod, I may get it and give it a test go.
I'm wondering though can you make it to were we can put in all the disks and we can select which one to play, sorta like a real jukebox?
If so that would be better than how you have it currently, though at current it's allot better than the default one.

How about if I turn each red dot in the inane above into a button that would play the song above it?

if you would not mind doing me a favor and pressing that little + button? thanks!
Thanks, also updated to 1.2.3.
Always wanting something like that

My wip 32x texture pack.
I don't know what the coding for minecraft is like but in c++ you would code it like:
if power=on: play music
if power=on/music ends: use command above
Hopefully that will help your thought process.
I'll look into it.
No problem, and sorry for putting it off for so long.

Sadly minecraft can only play one song at a time, I really don't see the use of playing multiple songs anyway.
