File tagging and encoding
Have you tried using ABP's own metadata tool and then using that to embed the metadata? They use tone. Not sure if it will help you with the m4bs containing mp4 streams - I've never tried dealing with that.

- LG G5 H850 (optional with Bang & Olufsen Hifi-Plus module) + Audiobookshelf + Substreamer
Let me cite my comment from https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32042780:
I use m4b-tool[1], tone[2] and audiobookshelf[3] together with an LG G5 H850 smartphone[8] with Bang & Olufsen Hifi-Plus Module for Audio Only and I am pretty happy with this config. For Music I use Navidrome[5] and Substreamer App[7]. Maybe I'll try out Jellyfin[4] or maybe Plex[6], but I really don't wanna go closed source.
I also thought about writing something self hosted in C# to have ONE solution for audiobooks, podcasts and music and started a small private project, but this will take a while until it is ready to release something...
You may ask: Why an LG G5 H850? Well, its relatively small and cheap (about 50 - 80 bucks used) it has an audio Jack, USB-C, you can change the battery, it can hold up to 2TB microSD storage, has an HiFi Plus module for audio enthusiasts and a descent screen. Besides that it can run lineage os...
Note: I'm the author of the first two projects :-)

> Very neat, I love it, I used to have a tool to do this but it's been ages and is now unmaintained.
Thank you :-) Glad to hear that.
> Just be sure to do input santization, since if someone else uses your code it could go from a very cool project to a backdoor that ends up on the front page for all the wrong reasons :-)
Good point. I think that the "scriptable" part needs special care regarding security issues, as well as the metadata-readers and JSON parsers. I don't want that to bite me in the neck because of a "malicious" file. Maybe it is worth to provide a responsible disclosure email and make a plan for security issues.

Adding Audiobooks and Old Time Radio Shows to Plex
Here is a resource that you will find useful for audiobooks. I love your old-time radio idea, I look forward to hearing what people suggest for that because I am totally stealing your idea lol.

Tagging Conventions
I'd probably just bite the bullet and update the tags on everything. I've always just adhered to /u/seanap and followed their guide: https://github.com/seanap/Plex-Audiobook-Guide

I don't want streaming music, I just want to stream my music
Prologue for iOS is a Plex audiobook player that is better than any audiobook player has a right to be.
Here's a good guide on how to set up Plex for proper metadata with audiobooks: https://github.com/seanap/Plex-Audiobook-Guide
- Plex needs an audio book style library
- Links to tutorials on how to clean up my library? (Just installed "scanned and matched" folder... it is a total mess still!)

Calibre for audiobooks
Depending exactly what you're trying to do mp3tag is a great tool for just managing metadata directly. The Plex Audiobook Guide has some handy tools for mp3tag that allow you to download info directly from audible.

has anyone done the big move from Spotify or other to Plex?
This is the way: https://github.com/seanap/Plex-Audiobook-Guide
- My audiobooks collection. I saw a similar post from another user and I thought about sharing mine.

Plex for Books?
There's a whole guide to getting it properly set up here.

For those of you listening to the Audiobook version of Secret Project #1, which way did you choose? I have an Android phone, so Speechify is out. I don't currently use Spotify, so I'm leaning towards loading the MP3's on my phone, but which app (Android) is good for Audiobooks given in this format?
Just to throw this out there though for anyone who might be interested in self-hosting their secret project audiobooks and others, to look at Audiobook Shelf. /r/audiobookshelf (what i'm doing) or set up plex to handle audiobooks (as best as it can) and use one of the players listed on that site, probably Chronicle on Android or Prologue for iOS.
What are some alternatives?
