Type of Enhancement

None

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

Changing the chapters of the audiobook you have "-" "+" "play" icons on the web browser. Pressing play will play that chapter(right time or not) but does not play on the visual player at the bottom nor give you any visual clue of where it's at in the book timewise. The chapter editor actually is separate from the book player because you can hit play any book is already loaded while the chapter editor is playing and you can have the book playing over itself.

What I'd like to propose is that if you hit play you either

A. have the visual player load at the bottom of the screen when you hit the chapter play button and show where you are timewise to find the correct chapter time to edit

or

B. have a in line time to the right of the play button with the time so you can manually input the correct time for the chapter when you find it or even another button after the inline timer to mark the beginning of the next/previous chapter.

Why would this be helpful?

Trying to change chapters especially after using the lookup tool doesn't always sync the chapters reliably and having to pull up the chapter editor while the book is loaded is a bit annoying.

Future Implementation (Screenshot)

Audiobookshelf Server Version

2.22.0 (debian)

Current Implementation (Screenshot)

Currently if you hit play on the chapter editor you have no visual indicator of where you are to edit the chapters manually.
