I prefer audiobookshelf. As it has download for offline play. The only downsides I've found is that you can't have it on a sub-folder, and the metadata on my audiobooks are completely trash. So they sometimes don't map correctly. But that's my own problem. Once I fixed it/enriched it it's been great so far.
And if your into stats it also has weekly graphs and a yearly review thingy:
In couple of months I will be building my first server and I was looking for something for audiobooks too. What do you mean that subfokders are not supported? Now I manualy add books to my phone and my folder structure is: Books series > * Book 1 * Book 2
Or Standalone books > * Book X * Book Y
That wont work?
I don't really care about stats, I have Storygraph for that. But what is the difrence between
books finished
andbooks listened to
? Shoudnt the latter be bigger number than the former?You finished 46 books in 14 sessions?
Sub folder for the web/API. I should have been more descriptive. IE: I had to have it on http://abshelf.example.com instead of http://example.com/abshelf/
ABS has a known directory structure for "figuring out" titles, authors, etc https://www.audiobookshelf.org/docs/#book-directory-structure . The problem I had is with the "Series" as I have them all saved in 1 folder.
Books>Author-Title(Series, #)/files
. Because of my terrible convention and I am probably the only one who does it, it only sometimes matched.But after remapping everything (I immediately setup backups so I never have to do it again).
For the stats, I only recently installed it, in November. So I marked a few books as finished, but didn't "listen" to them. Thus the stats are all skewed
I hate that there is such a rigid structure required for directories and such. Can't my drive of audiobooks just be scattered trash like everything else in my data life? Lol
Hahaha. You only have to spend a few hours like me remapping everything and then you'll never have to worry about the file structure!
