What do you all use for music vidoes? (alien.top)

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?

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.
