I like to use plex to get to all of my media, including audio lectures and audio books. It is frustrating that plex doesn't offer a continue playing from last position on audio files.

&nbsp;

Maybe there could be an option in an audio library to allow to continue playback from previous listening position, like with video.

&nbsp;

Thanks

> remember the play position for audiobooks also. especially now as it is possible to sync them and take them with you. [Edit Mod] This post is also asking for an audio book specific library type separate from music library. While remembering position is part of a Music library, Audiobook could help with other features like chapter selection, books covers, publishers, etc, which is not possible in a Music library.
