Feature requests

Feature description:

audiobookshelf (Github) is a self-hosted podcast and audiobook service. An integration with audiobookshelf enables Symfonium to have podcast/audiobook capabilities with another potent self-hosted solution.

Problem solved:

Plex removed podcast support a while ago. However, audiobookshelf offers great features for both podcast and audiobooks, making it one of the best alternative for open source and self-hosted option on NAS.

Brought benefits:

It enables Symfonium users to listen to podcast and audiobooks in a nice UI. audiobookshelf also manages all the metadata well, so users don’t need to manually edit them.

Better support for Audiobooks

For the moment AudioBook support is not at the level I want in Symfonium due to lack of proper support in most providers.

Once the work on that is done, adding specific providers for them will be evaluated again.

Same for podcast.

This is the way. Audiobookshelf is quickly becoming the defacto Jellyfin of the Audiobook world.

Hey @Tolriq since it’s been 1.5yrs since the original on-hold for this feature request, might it be a good idea to take a look at this?

If you still think there’s something lacking, could you elaborate so maybe someone can add it to the audiobookshelf project?

Thanks!

Could people please stop spamming their annoying “+1” comments? It doesn’t contribute anything to the topic and only fills my e-mail inbox with spam. Thank you!

To those that are following this thread but not the changelogs, an experimental ABS sync has been pushed btw

Just feeding back on the update – it works very nicely with my eBooks, organising them like singles albums! Book author is artist, album art shows up, and chapters are selectable! Podcasts don’t show up yet.

Love that Audiobookshelf has support. I’m seeing my books all synced. Is anyone else running any podcasts though? They’re not showing up for me, only books are.

I haven’t been able to get podcasts working either. If/when it is implemented, it sounds like the existing functionality can be leveraged for separation:

  1. Create a separate profile for AudiobookShelf (or separate further based on audiobooks/podcasts)
  2. Configure filters to only show the relevant content

End product should be somewhat similar to ABS’s official app re: separation
