I’m curious if anyone else keeps their audiobook library in Plex? if so how do you have it setup?
I setup a Music library and managed to get them imported, but each one is a single long track, no chapters.
Would appreciate any help on getting this setup.
Chapters are setup in the file itself. And I have a fairly large library
in order to use audio books in plex you need to ensure your metadata is correct. I use author = artist, and album = book title, along with either blank track titles or chaptered titles. Then I number the files in order of the book. And the file names have the same info: Robert Louis Stevenson - Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde and Other Stories - 01 of 03.mp3 I also embed the cover art into the files. and store them: Books/<author>/<title>/files.
If your metadata isnt 100% right it will make a mess of this.
my filename template is: %artist%\%album%\%artist% - %album% - %track% of %totaltracks%
Use Plex Music Scanner, and Personal Media Artists as the agent
