Type of Enhancement

Server Backend

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

I would like to request support for chunked uploads when uploading files to Audiobookshelf. Instead of sending the entire file(s) in a single request, the upload could be split into smaller chunks that are uploaded sequentially and then reassembled on the server.

Why would this be helpful?

Chunked uploads would improve reliability when uploading large audiobook files, especially over slow or unstable connections. It would also allow interrupted uploads to resume instead of restarting from the beginning, making the process more robust and user-friendly.

Additionally, this would help users running Audiobookshelf behind services like Cloudflare or certain application security tools that enforce strict request size limits. For example, Cloudflare has a 100 MB upload limit per request. By splitting uploads into smaller chunks, these limits could be worked around more easily.
