Does anyone know of a plugin or extension they will play the video of whatever song I’m listening to when the video is available and just play something like a screensaver when the video isn’t available?

    That sounds quite niche, so I’d be surprised. It’s also harder than it sounds, e.g. how do you sync up the video with your sound? Bear in mind that there can be different versions, for example the radio version is often shorter and sometimes the videos have footage at the start before the music kicks in.

    If you want the video, why not just play on Youtube in the first place?

      I wouldn’t expect perfect synchronization, just ballpark; this song is playing, oh, I remember this video

      As for why not just play the video. My speaks are better, my playlists more varied and my Navidrome is more accessible.
