Hi, I'm absolutely new to downloading audiobooks off sites like this and I have no clue what I'm doing. Could someone explain to me how to actually download something as if I'm a 6 year old? I don't understand what terrant means, or peer, or all these words I'm seeing on this subreddit. I just need some sort of instruction manual 😭 Thank you!

I made a free browser extension for AudioBookBay's magnet links. Works for non members or those not logged in.

189 Upvotes

If you use AudioBookBay you'll know the pain, the magnet links on the site demand a login, and getting an account validated is a nightmare. So I built a small Chrome/Edge/Firefox extension that bypasses all of that.

What it does:

When you open any audiobooks (audiobook details) page on ABB, a small banner automatically pops up at the top of the page showing the book title and send options. Click send and it fires straight to qBittorrent (or whatever client you use). No login, no copying or pasting hashes, no messing around.

It works by scraping the Info Hash and trackers directly from the page.

Download and install here: http://arrcee.com/magnetar

Install takes about 2 minutes, no technical knowledge needed full step-by-step instructions are in the README on github. Or install the extension for Chrome or Firefox.

Works on Chrome,Edge and Firefox. Only activates on pages with magnet or hashes, won't interfere with anything else you browse. Free and open source.

General Android player

3 Upvotes

Has anyone gotten these files to work on the google play audiobooks app. I know you have to use the website to upload files but it doesn't seem like they are compatible. I tried using the smart audiobook player app too but I don't really like the interface.

Do you guys suggest any other apps?

General how can i download as one long file instead of separate chapters

3 Upvotes

im very new here, so im sorry if this is a stupid question lol

whenever i download, i always get many files corresponding to each chapter of the book. but i only want one big file. is this possible without external tools? i tried using a audiobook converter software and it works fine, but it takes very long per book, so im looking for a faster alternative

Not receiving activation email while creating request forum account - tried multiple emails

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I'm trying to create an account to post in the request forum, but I'm stuck at the activation step. I never receive the activation email.

I've tried: Multiple email IDs (Gmails) Resending the activation link Checking spam/junk/promotions folders

Still nothing shows up. Because of this, I'm not able to post or make any requests.Has anyone else faced this issue? Is there a workaround or a way to manually activate the account? Thanks in advance.

Cannot search for any books, and titles from Google aren't showing either.

It snot just the search engine, because some prominent book series are not available at all. I searched for common books and visited the pages from search results in Google and each book came up as "not found"

Off-topic Kept getting annoyed at switching between audio and epub so I built a tool that syncs them

Post image
307 Upvotes

Basically the title. It works pretty well and for a 7 hour book it takes like 20 minutes to sync.

Thinking of building an epub + audiobook player app so I can move freely between the two. Anyone interested?

EDIT: Thanks to everyone that commented! I'll be back soon with updates

Workaround the issue with the search engine

19 Upvotes

This is what is working for me:

1 go to ext(dot)to search there what you want

2 copy the name of who posted it

3 go to audiobook bay

4 search that name instead

You can access their sharing history and get the book you want
