So few plex clients have support for audiobooks so I decided to work with Claude to add one. This adds comprehensive audiobook functionality to plezy including:

  • Audiobook library browsing and detail screens
  • Full-featured audiobook player with chapter navigation
  • Author browsing and filtering
  • Audiobook-specific UI widgets and controls
  • Playback state management and seeking
  • Integration with existing library navigation

I don't think the main app has background play support yet so I held off on that since it seemed much more invasive

audiobook content types in Plex libraries.

Music/audiobook support should probably be done as one, proper OS controls is also a requirement and for some reason it's very broken with media_kit on iOS, until there is a solution for that I don't to add this as it would not support background play.
