Describe the issue

Hi !

Very amazing software !

Got an issue : i've put several audiobooks in a folder, but ABS only show me the first audio book (but see all others in "files", and/or doesn't transform them in chapters, playlist or serie. Maybe I misunderstood something ?

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. put several audiobooks in a folder

Audiobookshelf version

2.6.0

How are you running audiobookshelf?

Docker

OK, my bad, I found how to tell ABS to make chapters from each files. ^^

BUT chapters don't take cover and titles are filename and not title from idtag

Hey I believe this is a misunderstanding. Your question is answered in the FAQ here https://www.audiobookshelf.org/faq#why-are-multiple-books-showing-as-the-same-book

The directory structure to use is also in the docs
