Does anyone here know about audiobooks support, if Plex is going to have that type of library ?

Plex does not, at this time, fully support audiobooks BUT there is the ability to pause/ff/rw/resume supported audio formats. It works best on single audio files as there is no direct support for serializing multiple little files. I guess some type of playlist might work for that but I have not tested as all my audiobooks have had their little files combined into a single file.

You have to turn that feature on in the library’s settings.
