Audible

(01_get.sh) Downloading

• https://github.com/mkb79/audible-cli (in requirements.txt)
• run: ./get.sh

(02_strip.py) Stripping DRM

• requires ffmpeg compiled with aac support
• https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/Ubuntu
• run: python 02_strip.py AUDIOBOOK.aax

(03_rename.py) Renaming Things

• Requires the python mutagen package (in requirements.txt)
• Grabs the title and artist from the file, then puts the file in the format Artist/Title/Audiobook.m4b
• AudiobookShelf likes Audiobook.m4b, vs the title, kind of annoying, so thats how I wrote this.
• run: python 03_rename.py filename.m4b or python 03_rename.py in a directory

Not Audible

For when you have a folder of mp3s in order of chapters

(04_chapters.py) Chapters [not for Audible, for collections of mp3 files]

• this makes a FFMETADATAFILE based on the timing of a list of Mp3 files and adds those as an M4B file
