Shows toast notifications when music starts playing on your system
Display your currently playing music as a Minecraft toast notification.
System Music Notification Toast (SMN Toast) is a client-side Fabric mod that detects music playing on your system and displays it as a toast notification in Minecraft. When a new track starts playing, you'll see a "Now Playing" toast showing the song title and artist name.
| Platform | Method | Requirements |
|---|---|---|
| Windows | SMTC (System Media Transport Controls) | None (built-in) |
| Linux | MPRIS via D-Bus | None (native) or playerctl (non-Flatpak) |
| Linux (Flatpak) | MPRIS via D-Bus | Permission grant (see below) |
To manually show the current track, bind a key in Options → Controls → Key Binds → System Music Notification Toast.
If you're using a Flatpak launcher (like PrismLauncher), you need to grant permission for the mod to communicate with media players.
Run this command:
flatpak override --user org.prismlauncher.PrismLauncher '--talk-name=org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.*'
Or using Flatseal:
org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.*Restart the launcher after applying the permission.
Note: This permission only allows communication with media players — it does not grant access to run commands on your host system.
