Better Audiobook Support - pocketdrummer - 2024-12-26
I just bought a bunch of audio books from Downpour (DRM-free), and I was hoping to host them on my NAS and listen to them with Jellyfin, but despite being in .m4b format, they don't have chapters. I'm happy that it retains the timestamp after I leave and come back, but it would be much nicer if I had a list of chapters and chapter names to choose from. Especially if I started reading the actual book and wanted to continue it on the audio book while on my way to work, for instance.
Request:
- Add support for chapters.
- Add some way to name the tracks so that they reflect the chapter names (Downpour just has Track 1, Track 2, etc).
- Add a way to merge multiple files so that they show up as one book. I have 3 files per audio book (separated around the 7hr mark).
