📄 Description

This PR is designed to help make the Audiobook File Management Tools more useful by adding more information to the Audio Tracks table and adding a new library specific setting for default encoding values for the "advanced settings". It is a WIP while I learn more about how JS and Vue work.

I'm okay if somebody takes this and runs with it since I won't be very fast.

  • Add bitrate column
  • Set default bitrate to be the maximum bitrate of the existing files (so everything isn't hard coded to 128k)
  • Add database table of default encoder settings as library setting
    • Use [max/min/fixed] bitrate
    • [Keep channels/force stereo/force mono]
    • Codec: [aac, opus], maybe more?
    • File format: [m4b, mp3]
  • Use library specific settings in file management tools

bitrate_column

The default encoding values will include information that can be reused for both audiobooks and podcasts. The default encoding values can then be applied to an entire library, individual library items (book or podcast episodes), or a grouping of library items (podcast). This PR will not include automatic encoding, but hopefully helps provide better support once queueing or automatic conversion is added.

(pardon the terrible mockup, but something kind of like this. Image will be replaced once I get the actual tab built)
