[App] InkShelf - An Audiobookshelf Client made for the Mudita Kompakt for your self-hosted Audiobooks.
Hello everyone! I am a relatively new owner of a Mudita Kompakt, a relatively experienced Android developer, and a huge enjoyer of audiobooks. With those things in mind, I decided to write an app for the Kompakt which combines all three. I made an app called InkShelf.
What it is:
This is an Audiobookshelf client made for the Mudita Kompakt. It uses your existing Audiobookshelf instance by allowing you to point to your instance and using your existing credentials.
What this means:
The idea of this app is to have a basic Audiobookshelf app, but made specifically for e-ink displays. It allows you to stream your audiobooks, or download for offline playback (with storage location customizable for storing on SD card if you prefer).
Features:
Connects to your current self-hosted Audiobookshelf instance (currently only supports HTTPS connections)
Allows streaming playback, or downloading for offline playback.
Title/Author/Series sorting (A-Z or Z-A)
Chapter viewing and selection (where functionality exists for your books)
Dithering of cover art so it looks half-decent on an e-ink screen (or you can turn cover art off entirely if you want)
Known Limitations:
I do know that longer (~80hr) audiobooks might not load correctly. This is a RAM related issue which I am currently working to fix.
Additionally, longer audiobooks take a couple seconds to buffer in order to start, but once playing, there should be no issues. This is also an issue I'm looking into!
Where to get it:
I am hosting this on GitHub. Here is the current release: https://github.com/tristinbaker/InkShelf/releases/tag/v1.0.3
Please let me know what you think!
