Welcome! Meelo is a self-hosted music server. It works similarly to Plex, Jellyfin, Koel and Black Candy, but focuses on flexibility, browsing and listening experiences. Actually, Meelo is designed for music collectors. What does it mean? Scroll down to see our killer features :arrow_heading_down:

While the software aims to be a flexible as possible, it requires a little bit of setup. However, once everything is ready, you will just have to sit back, relax, and enjoy your music. :sunglasses:

:star: Features

Meelo has all the basic features you might expect from a music player/server (playback, browsing, search, playlists, libraries ...). But it comes with a handful of features that make it unique :star_struck:

• Music Videos are first-class citizens
• Access them directly from an album's, artist's or song's page
• We also differentiate music video from interviews, behind-the-scenes, trailers...
• Identifies B-Sides
• Meelo shows you any tracks that could be related to an album directly on the album's page!
• ... and Rare tracks
• And show them on the artist's page, so that these rare gems do not get lost and forgotten!
• Automatic 'featuring' and duet detection
• Albums have releases
• Meaning that you can have multiple versions of a single album
• But only its main version would appear on browsing pages
• Of course, you can still access its other versions, directly from the album's page
• Songs have tracks
• It is pretty much the same as for albums and releases
• No duplicated songs when browsing your library!
• Songs have versions
• See an example here
• Album and Song types
• Finding instrumental songs or live recordings has never been this simple!
• Filter Songs that are exclusive to an album (for compilation albums only)
• Supports all formats!
• Thanks to transcoding and the way we parse files, any audio and video format is virtually supported
• (Note: Transcoding is only used when the file format is not supported in the browser)
• Flexible metadata parsing
• Use either the embedded metadata or the file's name (or both!) to extract metadata
• Also works with album covers!
• Get genres, descriptions, and ratings using MusicBrainz, Genius, Wikipedia and many other providers!
• Push Scrobbles to ListenBrainz and LastFM!
• Download (synced) lyrics or get them from embedded metadata and .lrc files

🔧 Setup

:point_right: To get started, follow the dedicated wiki

We love embedded metadata here. Make sure your music is correctly tagged before getting started!

[!NOTE] If you want to rely on the file paths as metadata sources, you might need to be familiar with Regexes!

:camera: Screenshots

[!NOTE] Some screenshots may be outdated and may not show the state of the latest version of the app. Some minor details may change (e.g. logo, spacing, etc.)
