What happened?

When playing an audiobook the progress is no longer saved. When stopping playback (not pause) and resuming, it starts playback back at the beginning instead of where it was last stopped.

What did you expect to happen?

Playback to resume from where last left off.

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Start playback (t=X)
  2. Stop playback at a later time (t=Y)
  3. Start playback again. Player starts at t=X instead of t=Y

Audiobookshelf version

v2.13.4

How are you running audiobookshelf?

Docker

What OS is your Audiobookshelf server hosted from?

Linux

If the issue is being seen in the UI, what browsers are you seeing the problem on?

Safari

Logs

No response

Additional Notes

  • Issue reproduced in v2.13.0, .1, .2, .3 and .4. Downgrading to v2.12.3 fixes this issue.
  • Tried multiple browsers (Safari, Chrome, Firefox)

Is this happening with multiple different books?

Do you see any errors in the logs?

Yes, every book I tried, unplayed, finished and in-progress books. I'm not getting anything useful in the logs:

Are you listening in the web client? If I play the book in the web client I can see the progress updating on the page. It takes 30 seconds for the first sync to happen. Then I close the book and re-open and it opens at the same spot.

It appears you are only testing on a 3rd party client. Try using the web client and try playing a book you've not yet played on the 3rd part client.

I did run into this issue when using a third party client but tested it in the web client to confirm. The logs provided are from the web client.

I was unaware it took 30 seconds of real time to sync, even when skipping around.
