What happened?

I migrated to Audiobookshelf recently. I was in the middle of listening to two books in Audible. After migrating to Audiobookshelf, I started listening to these books midway through. When I looked at my stats under Your Stats, it says that I’ve listened to >14 hours in a day.

What did you expect to happen?

I expected that the listening stats would track the time listened, not the difference in playback position. If I start a 20 hour book midway through and listen for 30 minutes, I’d want the listening stats to record 30 minutes, not 10 hours.

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Start a book.
  2. Slide the slider to midway through the book.
  3. Check the stats to see the inflated stats.

Audiobookshelf version

v2.17.7

@Vito0912 commented on GitHub (Jan 21, 2025):

This is not an issue with ABS, but with the client (although maybe it would not be bad to limit the time that can be added to a open session at once).
The client can be found here https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf-app. This is a know issue (Although I currently do not have the issue at hand)

Or do you only used the web interface?

That is currently how it works already. It will only track the amount of time you have actually listened and doesn't take into account your position in the book.

Are you using the official Abs app? There is a known issue where if you keep the app open for several days with the audio player open the progress will all go into the same day which can cause abnormal amounts of time listened in a single day.

Sorry, I should have mentioned I'm using the iOS app Plappa. Seems like it's an issue with that client app instead?

Yeah it is the client that reports listening time to the server. You can reach out to them.
