Luke 42077 Posted December 22, 2019 Posted December 22, 2019 Hi, yes this is planned for the future. Thanks for the feedback.
Guest Koda Posted December 23, 2019 Posted December 23, 2019 Hi, yes this is planned for the future. Thanks for the feedback. Great thank you. Do you know about a timeline? I don't mean 20. january. Is this a feature for Q1 in 2020 or no time so > 2021?
negativzeroe 80 Posted January 12, 2020 Posted January 12, 2020 Hi, yes this is planned for the future. Thanks for the feedback.To expand on audiobook resume requests, support for time and progress based on the book as a whole than individual tracks. That way it looks cleaner when you have a trilogy and book 1 is a single file, book 2 is chapterized, book 3 is 3 parts, etc. Keep up the great work!
Guest Koda Posted March 4, 2020 Posted March 4, 2020 Sorry for ask. Have you some news for playback audiobooks with more than one file?
Luke 42077 Posted March 4, 2020 Posted March 4, 2020 Not yet but it's planned for the future. Thanks.
Chyron 256 Posted March 4, 2020 Author Posted March 4, 2020 Not yet but it's planned for the future. Thanks. Would you care to elaborate? You said this same thing three years ago. Some more information would be greatly appreciated.
TheShanMan 40 Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 I just created an audiobook library the other day, and put some single file audiobooks in there. I downloaded one of the audiobooks and listened for a while. Later when I returned to emby to start listening again, instead of resuming it started over. That was really disappointing, and now I have to go through a single file audiobook hunting for where I left off. I wish that if a library type was missing basic functionality like resume, it would tell you that when you create the library.

If it's not pushed yet try the beta.
TheShanMan 40 Posted March 13, 2020 Posted March 13, 2020 You need at least build 3.0.98 if you have the stable. If it's not pushed yet try the beta. I have 3.1.7.
negativzeroe 80 Posted March 18, 2020 Posted March 18, 2020 I have 3.1.7.And it's still not working? Or you do now?
Luke 42077 Posted March 18, 2020 Posted March 18, 2020 Single file resume works just fine. We do not yet support it at the audio book folder level.
TheShanMan 40 Posted March 18, 2020 Posted March 18, 2020 (edited) It did not work for me. Was it perhaps because I was in a spot with no cell service when I stopped listening and therefore the app couldn't tell the server the resume point? And bear in mind I tried to resume listening at a later time using the same phone, not a different device. So I would've expected that even if it failed to update the server, the phone would still know where I stopped playing it. Edited March 18, 2020 by TheShanMan
Luke 42077 Posted March 18, 2020 Posted March 18, 2020 the app couldn't tell the server the resume point? Yes that is possible.
TheShanMan 40 Posted March 18, 2020 Posted March 18, 2020 Well given that I downloaded the audiobook from emby to my phone, I expected it to handle the "no internet" condition properly. Will that get fixed?
Chyron 256 Posted March 18, 2020 Author Posted March 18, 2020 (edited) We do not yet support it at the audio book folder level. As I said a year and a half ago, if you combine the single-track resume function (which starts the current track at last played location) with "Play all from here" (which starts at the beginning of the current track and queues the whole album) then you would accomplish this.

Also if I save a playlist and scroll to current track. Would it be possible to swing this queue functionality to the current track screen?
negativzeroe 80 Posted April 11, 2020 Posted April 11, 2020 (edited) What do you mean by current track screen?Like if you are halfway through a track on the audiobook the main screen has a continue listening and when you tap on it, it's just the one track. This I think is what he is talking about when it doesn't queue the whole album. Edited April 11, 2020 by negativzeroe
Luke 42077 Posted April 12, 2020 Posted April 12, 2020 Right thats an area we need to improve on. Thanks for the feedback.
MasterPhW 0 Posted July 24, 2020 Posted July 24, 2020 A few months later and I would like the to know the state of this feature. Like @Karpana I am using the playlist feature for interweened series (like the Arrowverse). Atm every new year has more entries/episodes and more series, so I have to scroll a lot to get to my actual episode. The Resume Playlist feature would mean a lot for me.
Luke 42077 Posted July 26, 2020 Posted July 26, 2020 Hopefully we'll be able to get to it soon. Thanks for the feedback.
negativzeroe 80 Posted August 7, 2020 Posted August 7, 2020 @Luke the audio plays well now without skipping halfway through or ten tracks down. Now we just need some way to resume. Even halfway through the track it doesn't show up on Continue Listening anymore.
