Support for audiobooks

I get the feeling that the new Plex API is spurring development around this from 3rd parties, the way the API supports markers and whatnot.

Are you running Audiobookshelf in Docker? I had the same issues. Got it resolved once I switched network mode from ‘bridged’ to ‘host’. Seems there are problems with the socket connection when using NAT.

+1000 for better audiobook support.

  1. m4b support so i can maintain a single file per book with plex appropriately reading metadata. otherwise i’m having to slap together a solution which scans the file for identifying words like “chapter 1” and script in python to split the tracks using ffmpeg. !GROSS!
  2. remember where i paused a track
  3. separate library type

audiobook chapter support would be great. playback speed got added to plexamp already, as well as skips of +/- 30s, but chapters are missing.

Hi

I wonder if someone with audiobooks on your server would be interested to help test my new audiobook app. IOS or Android, both welcome.

Also wonder if someone that uses a screenreader would be interested to be part of the testing to se if the app works for you.

If someone is interested pleas send me a message.

Regards
Magnus
