Jellyfin

I don’t have music videos, but if I did, I’d add them to my jellyfin

I use KODI as a music video player.

I manually fill XML .nfo files with the information for each music video. Then I have KODI rescan the music video directory and the new ones are added to the library.

It might sound like a lot of manual work but it only takes a few seconds per song. Considering you say you listen to the same songs a lot, it might not be a problem for you.

VLC lol, though I rarely actually play them.

I do download music videos I like though, they have a tendency to disappear.

I don’t host music videos, but if I did I’d just put them on my Plex/Jellyfin server. Both services deliver video of any codec to any device reliably, which can’t be said for all self-hosted apps. I also quite like both Navidrome and Plexamp and don’t see a good reason to switch. If I had a huge music video library that needed organization by artist and genre, then maybe I’d try Ampache. It looks a bit basic, but does offer support for music videos alongside your main music library.

Plex is the only solution I know of. There’s some documentation out there where people have gotten fancy with their music videos in Plex and how it’s organized.

I’m with a lot of other ppl here in this thread. I tried self-hosting music and yeah, music discovery was obsolete and that alone drove me back to Spotify. I self-host 80% of my daily driving services but music is 1 thing I just don’t want to self-host. CarPlay integrations of FOSS makes it hard to make the jump to begin with.

Though this really doesn’t help OP but this is just my take on it.

I keep music videos! I use jellyfin, content type: Music Videos. Works really well and I’ve also discovered that if you’re listening to an audio file that has the music video available, it shows a suggestion below the playlist

Check out ytdl-sub for downloading and formatting music videos: https://github.com/jmbannon/ytdl-sub https://github.com/jmbannon/ytdl-sub/blob/master/examples/music_video_subscriptions.yaml

YouTube premium is probs your best bet. Never heard of anyone publishing music videos.

I get music videos from YouTube and host them on Plex. If you are looking to receive new content on the regular, you could leverage yt-dlp on a Linux machine to download new content from your favorite YT channels such as Vevo.
