Is this a new server install, or did you upgrade from a previous version?

What client are you using (web, Android, iOS)?

Are you streaming or listening to a downloaded book?

Where is it out of sync? Is it not syncing to the server?

Do you have any screenshots to show what you mean?

Chinese-voiced audio novels are always very large, each one is about 10Gb.

They were always in sync before, but now they are not in sync, and the time will not be synchronized the next time you listen to it.

You have two sessions open (one in the app and one in the browser). Do you close the player when you're done listening?

In the Android player, look at the History in the upper right and check to see if the sync is happening. Also if you have any Debug server logs that would be useful

The purpose of opening two players is to observe the synchronization of playback time. They will be closed during normal use.

Are you still having this issue? The downloaded book needs to have been downloaded from the same server connection (ip address & user) as the one you are connecting to in the app.
If you have changed ip address or switched to a reverse proxy then the local download won't sync, it has to be re-downloaded.

I tried it, and it was indeed because I used a different server.
