From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

[EDIT]: Audacious does this, but Audacious doesn't view the file as a playlist rather as one file, I wish this could be changed, I don't know it might be. [\EDIT]

So, pretty much the title. I got this amazing Audiobook from Internet Archive and I wanted to play it in Linux.

But everytime I use VLC, VLC remembers where I was in a particular mp3 file but not on the whole playlist. Is there an application which will remember where I was in a particular playlist and in the individual file of that playlist?

mpd can be used for this, by configuring a state file. Then you can use a client like ncmpcpp for the terminal or f.ex. Cantata for gui. I believe that Cantata can be used to set up mpd for you, but I've never used that feature,
