@selfhosted@lemmy.world audiobookshelf is really good and one of the most important selfhosted platforms for me. I use it for both podcasts and audiobooks through my phone's browser and avoid the need for a platform-specific app and proprietary subscription-based services.
For anyone looking for a good iOS front end for their Audiobookshelf instance, I can highly recommended Plappa (and off topic Paperparrot for paperless by the same dev). One off and affordable purchase, no subscription.
I love ABS, I use it for both podcasts and audiobooks.
i run ABS as a web based manager for drm free audiobooks but the player itself is just totally unreliable, i download the files and add them to BookPlayer on iOS
I can't say I share that experience. By biggest problem with player is lake of chromecast on IOS and half balled chromecast on Android (lake of volume level, default 10% volum, doesn't see my speaker pair, doesn't always discover chromecast devices).
Are you using the web player or the iOS app? There is the official ABS app or Plappa as a third party app.
Hi @B0rax , @lealternative and I noticed that feddit.de has been unreachable since last night (server error). But how come I at Mastodon can read your message from this morning? Did you connect via the app?
When I played around with ABS over a year ago, they said there were no plans to add auto-downloading of podcast episodes to your phone or auto-queueing of new episodes, so I dropped it and haven't tried it since. Is this still the case?
The app is definitely not their focus, in particular podcasts where the app becomes very slow and crashy as you get hundreds of episodes per feed. Those features still are not present.
ABS does support RSS enough that you can hook a preferred podcast app up to your "local podcast mirror" and only use the ABS app for actual ebooks.
Thanks. I don't generally listen to audio books, so what I'm really looking for is a self-hosted solution for podcast syncing that works better than gpodder while keeping feature parity with AntennaPod on my phone. It sucks that ABS is so close to that but decided to not go the last 10% of the way. I'm sure they have a good reason.
I’m looking forward to when Prologue v4 comes out and finally supports ABS. After that, I can finally move myself and my family to ABS and I’ll be one step closer to removing Plex.
This is what’s still keeping me on Plex. Waiting on that testflight.
I have not heard of Prologue and it support for Audiobookshelf (ABS).
Why would one choice Prologue over the ABS app?
The ABS app is also still in beta on iOS, so unless you are tech savvy enough to either sideload or try to get in on one of the windows when users are booted from the testflight beta, you are going to have to use one of the 3d party apps.
Prologue just seems to do many things nicely, and user experience seems very important to the developer, so there is a huge crowd that swears by the app.
Additional reason along with what others have said: my mom has been massively consuming books on Prologue. It’s easier to keep her on a single app than to switch her to ABS or Plappa.
