UK radio

If Web Scrobbler states on their website that these UK radio stations should be supported, you should check the Issues section of their GitHub page and write a report if there is something wrong:
Can't scrobble Bandcamp
1 project | /r/lastfm | 29 Jun 2023

The desktop scrobbler doesn't support Bandcamp scrobbling. To scrobble from Bandcamp you'll need to install the Web Scrobbler browser extension.
Can I use the lastfm desktop scrobbler to track spotify on PC without connecting my spotify account?
1 project | /r/lastfm | 31 May 2023

Nope, the desktop scrobbler only works with media players (iTunes/WMP). You can use the web player + web scrobbler combo if you'd rather not connect your Spotify account.

Posting this in case any one else runs in to the same problem. I found a discussion about this issue on Web Scrobbler's github page: https://github.com/web-scrobbler/web-scrobbler/issues/3462 Seems to be happening to other people and not yet resolved.

I find I use Web Scrobbler to listen to a wide variety of radio. You can discover new artists in volume that way.

For client side last.fm support the site could be added to this web-extension.

Martha Wells, A.G. Riddle, and More Audiobooks from Recorded Books
3 projects | /r/humblebundles | 30 May 2023

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
22 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 5 Apr 2023

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.

My audiobooks collection. I saw a similar post from another user and I thought about sharing mine.
9 projects | /r/PleX | 8 Feb 2023

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?
1 project | /r/PleX | 3 Jun 2022

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
1 project | /r/audiobookshelf | 4 Feb 2022

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?
3 projects | /r/jellyfin | 4 Feb 2022

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
1 project | /r/PleX | 16 Dec 2021

There is no built-in Plex audiobook agent. Do you have (old) Audiobooks.bundle agent installed?
Synology NAS Audiobook Agent
1 project | /r/PrologueApp | 24 Sep 2021

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
1 project | /r/PleX | 15 Sep 2021

Sounds more like an issue with the agent. The fork here allows you to disable downloading artwork https://github.com/seanap/Audiobooks.bundle
