I’m using Navidrome for my music, but what is the best way to host music videos? Just treat them as videos as stream through plex or similar app? Or is there a music player that supports music videos?
Jellyfin
Is there an archive of all jag9war rips from VIVA and the likes?
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 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.
VLC lol, though I rarely actually play them.
I do download music videos I like though, they have a tendency to disappear.
Yeah I just have a Plex collection and rip things off youtube with “youtube-dl-material”
YouTube premium is probs your best bet. Never heard of anyone publishing music videos.
dont really selfhosting but YT + Ublock is my way
I dont care about those. Dont watch them dont use them dont collect them. Might watch it once every blue moon on youtube with revanced
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
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.
