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
For my current book there is about no metadata in the files that was first thing I checked.
Oh sorry, can’t think of an easy solution then. I’ve seen that audiobookshelf can find metadata for you, that could be doable. They also support ebooks but if I understood correctly from their docs they don’t get synced to the audio position, just to themselves.
A promising but still in beta software is Storyteller, under very active development here. It works by creating a ‘rich’ epub that contains the audio synced line by line, which you can then read/listen to with just one app.
There’s also older software with a similar approach like syncabook but at a glance it seems less usable than Storyteller.
