== Introduction ==
AudioBooks is an addon that allows you to list and play your AudioBooks using Kodi.
<br /><br />
On installation of the AudioBooks addon it will need configuring to point to the directory that contains all of your AudioBook files. This can be done via the AudioBooks Settings, or if not set, you will be prompted on first use.
<br />
<br />
== Basic Support ==
With the default configuration you can:
* List all your AudioBooks (By filename)
* Play your m4b AudioBooks
* Resume your AudioBooks from the point it was last stopped
<br />
<br />
== Advanced Support ==
In order to get features that include:
* Display of AudioBook Titles
* Display of AudioBook Cover Artwork
* Listing of AudioBook Chapters
* Starting playing from a given chapter marker
Then you will need to download [https://www.ffmpeg.org/ ffmpeg] to a location on your machine and then use the AudioBooks Addon Settings to point to the ffmpeg executable.
<br /><br />
Note: If you previously loaded books without ffmpeg, then you will need to clear the cache via the settings - or the context menu to have the audiobooks rescanned.
<br />
<br />
== Cover Art ==
The cover art for a given audiobook is retrieved in the following order:
# A jpg file in the same directory as the audiobook with the same name (i.e. an audiobook with the name myaudiobook.m4b and an image with the name myaudiobook.jpg)
# An image that has previously been cached from a book (Based on the file name of the book)
# Extracted internal image from the audiobook file (If ffmpeg enabled)
# The default cover image set in the AudioBooks settings screen.
<br />
<br />
== Debugging ==
If reporting a problem, please also provide a debug log. To do this you need to enable BOTH:
* Kodi [[Settings/System#Debugging|logging]] from the main setting menu
* AudioBooks debug from the AudioBooks addon settings menu
Please do not paste the log into the forum thread, just link to it.
<br />
<br />
