So thanks to this community, I have found the wonders of Audiobookshelf! Seems very promosing so far, but my main gripe is with my folder structure. I am therefore wondering if there is any media sorter tools out there? I’m thinking something along the lines of https://github.com/jpillora/media-sort (for plex) that I can use to sort the files into a supported folder structure for ABS, but even better would be if it also had a metadata agent that created an .obf file with common information.
If anyone has any tips it would be greatly appreciated, even if it’s some script that someone uses for own personal use that they wouldn’t mind sharing, I’m not closed to doing some coding work myself in order to get this right.
So you set up a download folder, that is where it expects new files. Then you can drop them in there and it should be detected for automatic import (if it is confident), otherwise manual import (where you select the author & book & format). You still need to add the author to the library in order to have it manage it.
I’ll be on my computer later so if you’re still having trouble let me know and I can try and put together a step by step guide.
I think mostly I didnt see any options for setting up the download folder, just different download options (like torrent and usenet etc).
