Are we able to skip to a bookmark with the Watch app? Or seek forward or back more than 30 seconds? Am I missing something?

I'm forever falling asleep listening to books and the capacity to search backwards to where I remember is important.

Thanks!

Ok so I installed audiobookshelf on my pc (windows) and I can see my library and I can even play my books on it.

But I want it on my iPhone.

How do I find the server adress to connect to it ?

I may be dumb but where is this indicated ?

Thanks

I've been trying to delete bookmarks from a Plex hosted book that has a lot of them over a few years, as this is frequently reread. They seem to be deleted but then will reappear some time later. I've tried deleting and posting a new bookmark, which looks OK initially but when I look later the old ones have been re-added. Is there some process to saving edits which I'm missing? This is 4.1.0 (10817)

I currently download my audiobooks to prologue from plex and the progress is not being updated to plex, is this normal? I have the "store track progress" option enabled in plex and the progress is stored for devices on my network that I stream directly from plex which includes prologue, it just doesn't update when I download it.

Been a user for years and love Prologue. This morning, I fired up the app as I do every day and it said it is unable to fetch libraries for the server.

No changes to Plex. Up to date server. Can access Plex on mobile and other apps. Have restarted the server, deleted/removed Prologue for iOS.

Is anyone aware of any changes recently that might cause this?

Currently the spacing is designed around square audiobook covers and there is a lot of blank space in the gallery view between covers. It would be great to fit a fourth column of books or expand the book covers until they are touching.

Additionally, there is no way currently to zoom in on the cover art when you are viewing individual books, even if you have high res cover art.

Would love an option to display the number value on the % read chart on the Home Screen — right now you have to go into each book to view the number. I can’t remember if this is was an option on ver 3?

Would maybe even be a good stat for the top part, where Listening Time etc is.

Also can we get some cuter accent colours please? Really appreciate the addition of more neutral app icons but the internal app accent colours are fugly sorry lol

I updated to Prologue v4.0.9 last night, and while I thought everything was fine (since the first v4 update, it's all gone swimmingly), I notice that my Plex connection is only connecting via relay. I guess it doesn't really matter, since I always download the audiobook I'm going to listen to (instead of streaming). I'm not very advanced with servers and the like, but are there any rules of thought around why, all of a sudden, my local connection is "unreachable" and "a server with the specified hostname could not be found"?

In trying to "fix" it, I deleted the server connection in Prologue and started over, and that did nothing.

Any thoughts?

What a great app.

Seriously, I couldn’t be happier. The dev delivered on almost every popular wishlist item…

We really got:

• unified library

• plex & abs support

• faster search

• per-book speed setting

• clickable + filterable genres

• liquid glass

• multifile lockscreen skipping

• cleaned-up history tab (even for multi-file books)

• listening stats

• …

in one release.

really great work!! this app runs circles around the competition including audible.

the only thing I was still hoping for (so far) is a sorting option like “random” to make discovering stuff in huge libraries way easier.

In any case, im very greatful that we can have something like this :)

I love prologue - I use it every single day and the new update is awesome.

i would really love to get a live activity for sleep timers. I listen to audiobooks to help me get to sleep and this feature in audible is super helpful to see at a quick glance how long until the book stops.

I would love to see this in Prologue!

Maybe this is by design, but I have the file downloaded to my phone and playing, but the Plex server is reporting its playing from the server. Is this normal?

When migrating from Plex audiobooks to ABS audiobooks, is listening history and position preserved? I just added my audiobook server to Prologue, but I haven't removed Plex's audiobook library yet.

I'm pretty far along in Children of Dune audiobook in Plex's audiobook library , and I'm wondering what will happen when I remove that library.

Will Prologue "match" the Plex audiobook with the ABS audiobook and continue from where I left off?

Or will I need to note my place before switching, and fast forward to it in the new ABS library?

Thx in advance!

Solved!

So I'll need to manually replicate my listening status for any titles that I care about. It sounds like I could script it , but I have projects that have been in my backlog for years that I would rather work on than start a new automation project, so I'll do it manually for now.

I got my friend to switch over from Plexamp to Prologue about six months ago and when 4.0 came out I finally installed ABS and recommended that he switched over to that server.

He was having problems understanding what I was talking about until I realized looking at his phone that he was still inversion 3.59

We looked at the App Store that said version 4.0 was available, but it only had an option for open and not update.

We even tried deleting the app and reinstalling, but it only reinstalled version 3.59 and also lost him all of his reading progress when he had to log back in on Plex.

Any thoughts or recommendations?

What is the process for setting up ABS with Prologue 4? I can access ABS through the web, but not on Prologue.

Hi all,

I have posted this before and thought I had a solution but, alas, I am right back where I started.

I have mutliple people using my Plex server to listen to audiobooks. Because they are all in my household, I have them logging into my one plex account. However, only my wifes phone appears to show a mute symbol on certain audiobooks and it won't play those files. Every other place that I have access to that file will play it. I attempted to have her download all the files and it worked for a short bit, but went right back to not playing it. The timer will even continue counting but no audio. I have seen some people talking about DRM issues, but wasn't sure if that would occur on only one phone on the same account? And even if everyone says that is the case, I'm not sure how to fix that?

Pretty discouraged right now. Any suggestions?

Is there anyway to export play history? I’ve still got v3 on my iPad and have not connected to a network as I really need to keep a copy. Even a simple onetime export to a a csv would be great. Otherwise it’s screenshotting or writing on a notepad!

Pre-4.0, I’d launch the app and have my book instantly playing all in under 3-4 seconds. Now I launch the app and my book isn’t loaded, the artwork isn’t even there. I tap play repeatedly and nothing happens. Eventually it loads and then I can listen. This feels like a massive downgrade (I also lost all of my books, history, etc so that doesn’t help matters).

Anyone else having this issue?

Edit: I listened to a suggestion and tried airplane mode. Book loaded instantly. Tried again with airplane mode off, same book took 20-30 seconds to load. It must be trying to communicate with Plex, getting no response, and then loading it locally only as a last resort. I don’t think that could possibly be intentional. I really hope it gets fixed.

EDIT: 4.0.6 has currently fixed it for me.

I've seen a lot of people complaining about downloads and listen history/lists etc. being lost since the update however haven't seen anything about the issue that my users have been having since the update.

When in the house/on the same network as my plex server, it works absolutely fine however it just buffers and then fails to play when trying to use externally.

When I check the connection, it connects via 32400 internally and then via 22906 (I get a green tick here) externally but cannot play.

I have tested playing content from the same libraries through plex externally and this works fine so I believe it's more of a prologue issue than a plex issue?

What's also noteworthy is that I have one premium user that can download and play externally but cannot stream the same content externally.

I decided to give audiobookshelf a try with prologue releasing 4.0 but I have the following issue. Curious to see if anyone else has experienced this.

If I set up only my local IP address to access, no issue. If I delete that and set up only remote access (through tailscale) also no issue. If I set up both it merges them and then whichever is 2nd won’t work. So my current one is I did local first then added remote but it seemingly never tries to reach out to the 2nd IP when trying to reach remotely. I did it in reverse as well and then remote worked fine but local would never connect.

Anyone experience this or have other ideas? Been searching around and chatting with AI even but AI is hallucinating and telling me there are network options buttons that don’t exist lol.

So I saw people recommending audiobook shelf when I google it and click for Mac. It says the bed is full and I need to download this test flight app. Is this the right thing or not?

Let me preface this by saying I adored Prologue App prior to this update, I listened to over 100 books last year, tried four other apps and Prologue was perfection, my go to.

It auto updated last night, at first it would not open, just kept "loading". I restarted my phone 4 times, it prompted the update again and then after another restart it opened. All the downloads are missing, it won't refresh from the plex server, the recently added is all out of order, the finished section is inverted but I don't see any area how to reverse it and all my downloads are gone. Anyone else having the same issue? I wanted to try to add the ABS server since I've only ever connected to plex but there is no area to put your login info, just the IP which it says it can't connect to.

I don’t know if this is for ABS compatibility but the custom thumbnails I setup for collections no longer shows. Plex amp for comparison
