It work great for me.

Interesting attempt but this is still a workaround which includes unnecessary steps. If only Plex could add an optional resume function to audio files.

I use Smart Audiobook Player today and like the functions there with autostop, and other nice functions. What i miss is to have all my bookā€™s in Plex and can use sync on they and can play on multriple devices and share how long in the books i have come.

I have a lot of audiobooks, some radio shows, and a couple podcasts downloaded and hosted in Plex.

Unfortunately, if I get halfway through an audiobook, and have to stop listening, Plex doesnā€™t remember where I left off, forcing me to start all over again at the beginning, or just look around until I find where I was.

A library option that remembers where you left off with Audio media would be excellent.

Plex has not responded and that could, at least partly, be because the people wanting this feature have diluted their impact by not following directions.

OMFG just what I wanted - with podcasts and audio book support I wouldnā€™t need iTunes any longer WOOHOO Plex 4 Audiobooks and Podcasts please!
