When will this be available for macOS?
Thank you so much! This is exactly what I have been looking for for a while now š
Awesome, this totally helped me! Thank you!
I did this days ago, my issue is remote access. I cannot find a guide on how to enable this outside my home network. I mirrored my plex firewall rule thinking that would enable access and sadly no. Any ideas?
I'd love to do this because I have hundreds of audiobooks. but I have no idea how to do anything you did. š
Man, i cant wait to try this and have docker completely spazz out and the server not responding…
I sure miss the days of downloadable executables. You know, like filezilla…!
Do Docker "require" you to only use your c-drive for any and all data?
I am failing so hard to get Docker to add my network shares…
I can't seem to access any local folders or files, although I run docker as administrator. Audiobookshelf simply stops after running for a second. If I point my stack to somewhere in the linux tree, the container starts, but there's no data…
Also, by "self-host", do you mean "pay someone else $5 a month"?
this is a great video, would be sweet if someone showed a way to access remotely and how to share libraries with family members. thank you for the video and bringing my attention to this application
How do you configure for an outside network use
I've had Audible since before Amazon acquired them; Member since 2004. And I was on the OLDER plans where you actually got a ton of titles. So I'm sitting on slightly over 700 books; that said, the one problem I've run into recently is I had two books I purchased way back when.. deleted from my account. They are no longer available through Audible due to a rights issue or something. Well, shit, I paid for them back then! This was enough to convince me to look for a solution. I think people hate physical media and all of that, but it is something I think about when you "buy digital" because they sure can take it back (had it happen to me on the PS4 as well). If I can store this stuff and never lose it? I'm all about it. Thanks for the heads up.
Can you make a video for dumb people who know the minimum of synology?
Docker is not supported on the Synology DS model I own. I've been using Plex + Audnexus + Prologue for over a year now and it works great! One advantage over this setup to Audiobookshelf, is the listing of the Narrator – this is handled by Audnexus.
Is there an option to get the content without an account?
The Server runs great but the Client is a useless piece of S*** didnt work on lot of Android Devices. But if you use the Webinterface its a great thing
Wow! Never knew you could pull all content down from Audible. Definitely doing this
This is exactly what Iād been looking for. Thank you so much!
If one is using Linode to host the Linux instance is it possible to hold the Audiobook files on Google Drive as I think a large amount of storage on Linode would be expensive?
So is there a Windows based tutorial?
How do I access them on my Ios device when I'm not at home or infront of a computer?
Plex is a MILLION times easier and faster.
i installed docker for hte first time, then downloaded image "advplyr/audiobookshelf" . i didnt connect it to any share folder…. and instaallation is done… used mostly default settings. figured id edit them later as i figure it out. nope. even though its "running", i dont even know how to launch the "image"
I'm gonna have to re-watch this a few times.
I've been using emby for the longest to host my audiobooks. It doesn't keep good track of whT I'm doing so I'll check this out. Thanks. I've never used a docker before. There's so much I haven't done on my synology. I don't use plex for media. Only Emby.
That app looks amazing but I can't see myself putting my User name/password into the app. I'm guessing that link does pretty much the same thing as giving whomever your password.
what aren't all videos good like this!? damn! Likes and subscribed!
can you please link the plex reddit page you reference at 7:10, thanks
Thanks for the amazing tutorial, managed to set it up. One question though – how do I make it accessible outside the network? I can't figure out all these ports
I wish you'd shown how to do your Synology installation. That's the part of this video that would have been interesting, and not covered in other videos, but you skipped right over it. Maybe a follow up video?
How do you access ABS from outside local network?
Realy great video, I'm searching for somthing like this!
I have an synology NAS do you by any change have an video of how i can install this app on my NAS?
mkdir -p media/{books,podcasts,metadata}
I really hope these aren't the books that you read normally. I wasn't expecting this XD
Since you canceled Audible where do you get your new audiobooks at? Of course you can cancel your subscription to audible and still play what you already purchased it so I guess, at least for me, i can't see the big draw.
How do you obtain new audiobooks without Audible? I'm all for parting ways with Audible/Amazon but I don't see any good competitors in the market.
Been on my to do list for a while.
Thank you.
Wow, this came up the right time. Stared to play a round with Booksonic and Audiobookshelf. The video helped to decide where to go on. THX
