Martha Wells, A.G. Riddle, and More Audiobooks from Recorded Books
Also I noticed Audiobook.bundle is no longer being actively worked on and has been moved to a different project, Audnexus. If you want to try it, I would use Audnexus because it has a release in March.

I don't want streaming music, I just want to stream my music
I just set up Plex with the Audnexus agent (https://github.com/seanap/Audiobooks.bundle), using the Prologue app (https://prologue.audio/) to listen on my phone. It was a little bit of a fiddle to set up, but it's worked wonderfully.

Plex needs an audio book style library
I used this one: https://github.com/seanap/Audiobooks.bundle
-
My audiobooks collection. I saw a similar post from another user and I thought about sharing mine.
You certainly have to massage it to make it work but with a plug-in or two (Seanad guide)and apps like prologue you certainly can get a good and complete experience.
-
Any way to deal with audiobooks with bad filenames/metadata?
Mp3Tag can be used to bulk edit local metadata if that's what's causing issues. This guide that targeted Audnexus's predecessor is also still relevant if you want to automate some of the process.
-
New tentative user with a few questions
I currently have my large collection of audiobooks indexed in Plex as a music library using the Audiobooks.bundle scanner/agent - I setup AudiobookShelf on a VM to play around with it and have so far been very pleasantly surprised by the feature set.
-
Is there any planned support for audiobooks?
I can't help with the Jellyfin side of things, but I have had great success with this methodology via Plex (even in the free version) using the iOS app Prologue
-
Audiobook Scan Agent
There is no built-in Plex audiobook agent. Do you have (old) Audiobooks.bundle agent installed?
-
Synology NAS Audiobook Agent
The latest plex update broke metadata agents. For now you can roll back to 1.24.2. Plex will be release a fix in an upcoming beta release https://github.com/seanap/Audiobooks.bundle/issues/36
-
New BETA PMS Version Available - 1.24.3.5033-757abe6b4
Sounds more like an issue with the agent. The fork here allows you to disable downloading artwork https://github.com/seanap/Audiobooks.bundle

When you use a Walkman the memories come back: the people in love with old tech
My primary way to play music is from my self-hosted navidrome[1] server with my collection of albums I've mostly purchased from bandcamp. I can stream it to many different devices at home or on the go.
But sitting next to my bed is a Walkman (actually a $10 Jensen version) with a few of my favorite cassettes in the nightstand drawer. Granted, I listen to raw black metal, so the format fits the music well, but I really enjoy just popping in a cassette and hitting play. When I "metaltate", I listen to full albums and do not want to ever be interrupted or have skipping audio due to bluetooth or anything else. It is a really simple and great experience.
Would I ever take my walkman with me or want to carry around a bunch of tapes on a trip? Of course not! But it does have a time and place that is valuable.
When friends come over, we use either vinyl or my custom built RFID cards. There is more of a ceremony to digging through a physical stack of albums and being forced to listen to the album front to back.

Ask HN: Managing MP3s on Mac/iOS Without Streaming Services
Basically, you run a server on your Mac that scans your music collection and "broadcasts" it to the network (LAN or WAN) via either the venerable UPnP/DLNA[1] family of technologies or the newish Subsonic API[2]. Of course, there are others, like DAAP or AURA, etc..
From there, you need to point a compatible player to said server to play your music on any supported device.
If you want to listen to your music on the go, pairing a Subsonic-compatible server on your Mac and a Subsonic-compatible app on your iPhone is probably the way to go. On the server side, I have only used the original Subsonic[3], which was good, but Navidrome[4] seems to be OK. But be aware that the whole "scene" is super messy and fragmented, with the usual abandoned forks of open source alternatives of everything.
Note that this means opening your local network, which comes with its own complexity.
This r/selfhosted thread[5] should give you an idea.
My use case is slightly different. I only care about streaming to my Denon CEOL mini system, which only supports UPnP/DLNA, so my current setup is:
- All my music is stored on a 2011 Mac Mini,
- I use Kazoo Server[6] (not perfect but reliable) to stream it to my audio system,
- which I control via the HEOS app provided by Denon.
Whatever stack you choose, make sure your files are tagged correctly and consistently.

.NET 8 Standalone 50% Smaller On Linux
Jellyfin is great for movies & shows. As an anecdote, it's not so good for music if you're a collector. I personally use Navidrome for that[0].
Anyway, Sonarr[1] makes use of .NET, too. Very reliable software, in my experience.
