Describe the feature/enhancement

Hi there,

First off, I wanted to say how much I love using your audio editing tool! It's been a game-changer for me in uploading and editing audiobooks.

One feature that would be helpful to add is the ability to save chapter info directly onto the audio file metadata. Currently, the only option is to use the embed tool to add chapter markers, which can be time-consuming if you work on a longer project.

It would be great if there were an option to save the chapter info on the fly as you finish editing the chapter list or an option on the administration page to choose between saving the info on the fly or using the embed tool.

This would make the editing process even more efficient and streamlined, and I'm sure other users would find it helpful.

Thank you for considering this feature request! Let me know if you have any questions or need further clarification.

Best regards

PS: Is it possible to also add the chapter feature on the podcasts?

@Demian98 commented on GitHub (Mar 20, 2023):

I would love to have this feature too. 95% of the audiobooks in my library have a mp3 file per chapter. It would be perfect if the chapter can be written into the title metadata field of the mp3, when running embed metadata.

  • It could be an option to select, like it is for "backup audio files": grafik
  • Another way could be, to do it automatically, when the count of files does match the count of chapters.

Personally I would prefer if it is an option to select. This gives users more flexibility to use the tool like they want too.
