> How do i add metadata into mp3 so that plex can recognise book chapters ?

Plex doesn’t support audio chapters, so as far as I know there’s nothing you can do to get Plex to recognize them. The only workaround I know is to split the file into its chapters as individual tracks. More general audiobook support (including chapter selection) is the third highest voted feature suggestion ([Support for audiobooks](https://forums.plex.tv/t/support-for-audiobooks/27518)), but hasn’t been implemented.

Plex is planning some server-side support for audiobooks and other media types like ebooks, but since it’s server-side only, you’d have to use a third-party app that connects to your server to actually play the content: [Fireside Follow-up: Metadata Agenda, NFO Support, and some of our future work on PMS](https://forums.plex.tv/t/fireside-follow-up-metadata-agenda-nfo-support-and-some-of-our-future-work-on-pms/887946).
