If I attempt to stream an m4a version of the audiobook – everything will work. Obviously, I would like the ability to download one of my audiobooks on the fly to my iPhone and listen to it with CarPlay. The ProblemĪll of my devices are IOS devices. Or at least I thought it was the complete solution.

This was the answer I was looking for! I don’t have to be physically home to get to one of my audiobooks, nor would I have to preload my audiobooks to a cloud service in anticipation of listening to them. In addition to storage and hosting, the website will allow you to either listen to the audiobook via streaming or download the audiobook to your device. Moembug’s feature allows you to store an audiobook that has been converted into a single file on the calibre-web application.

This can be incredibly painful process which may require physical access to your home machine. If you have a collection of audiobooks disk from ripping them from cd or whatever, you have to figure out how to get the file(s) from your computer to whatever audio device you’re using. The issue I encountered was that it’s really hard to download an audiobook for the average user if they are not using iTunes or Amazon’s Audible. Due to a recent job change, I may have a long commute again and so I figure, why not look into some audiobooks to kill the time? I’ve started listening to audiobooks a little earlier this year again after being away from them for some time. I help clean up some of the code, so I got to know the code a bit.Īudiobooks has become a one of my latest rabbit holes to run into. Modembug’s feature is scheduled to be in the v1.1 release. I can’t recommend it enough! Upcoming feature (hopefully): Audiobooks!Ī contributor to the repo, Aaron Labiosa (aka modembug), had added a feature that allows for the hosting of audiobooks. I’ve been using the repo for well over a year as my website for my books. Go to the repo to get a list of all of the features.

Here’s a screenshot that is used on the readme.md of the repo: calibre-web interface It has a very clean, Bootstrap-based interface and comes a ton of features that you can’t find, or isn’t as mature in other offerings. The calibre-web project is another web solution for the ever popular Calibre e-book management software. I’ve been investing a lot of time into learning python and trying to contribute to the calibre-web project.
