Songs2VID OSS

Payment-free, self-hosted software that turns cover art and audio into YouTube videos (FFmpeg encoding + BullMQ jobs). Every deployment has full entitlements — there are no plans, credits, purchases, subscriptions, paywalls, or Stripe.

Sign in with Google, open the dashboard, and create videos. Settings cover account, YouTube connection, and API keys only.

Quick start (Docker)

Published image: atakanozban/songs2vid:latest

1. Clone this repo (or copy docker-compose.yml + .env.example).
2. Copy .env.example to .env and set at least:
   • NEXTAUTH_SECRET
   • GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID
   • GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET
3. In Google Cloud Console, enable YouTube Data API v3 and add an OAuth redirect URI:
   • Local: http://localhost:3000/api/auth/callback/google
   • Production: https://YOUR_DOMAIN/api/auth/callback/google
4. Start the stack (web + worker + Postgres + Redis):

docker compose up -d --build

Or pull the published image and run Compose after pointing services at atakanozban/songs2vid:latest (same env and volumes).

Open http://localhost:3000 → sign in → dashboard.

No Stripe keys or billing env vars are required.

Features

• Batch: one cover (or per-track covers) + many audio files → YouTube uploads
• Classic letterbox and art-track layouts (blur backgrounds, typography, fine-tuning)
• Custom watermarks (badge, text, or logo) and curated or uploaded fonts
• YouTube playlists, privacy, tags, resolution, categories
• REST API for automation (keys under Dashboard → Settings → API key)
• Always-on self-hosted entitlements (no quota paywall)

Local development

docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up -d
cp .env.example .env   # then edit secrets / Google OAuth
