audiobook syncing (lemmy.zip)

Hey all,

Not exactly directly piracy but since I pirated the material I'm talking about thought it would fit. When I download books I often get both the audiobook and the epub of the same book but most of the audio books are in the format of the whole book in one file. Is there a website or someway to see timestamps on the audio book to relate with chapters in the book. I often listen to the book while cleaning or doing random things but want to read the same book later and having to find the right spot is hard and takes a long time.

Thanks

You can try installing audiobookshelf as an audiobook server. You can do lookups from audible there and automatically set chapters.

+1 for Audiobookshelf, couldn't be happier, Android app and website on mobile both work great.

Ah this sounds nice. I will give it a look thanks.

This is my solution also. I listen to audio books on my way to work, and read on an ebook-reader in the evening. Can be tricky to sync when the chapter structure is non-traditional though (e.g. Discworld).
