Patch shipped: v1.6.748 — Audiobookshelf can use an audiobook folder you already have
Posted by Chris
These SparkBox updates are now available: v1.6.748 — Audiobookshelf can use an audiobook folder you already have - Audiobookshelf gets a real "Audiobooks Folder" setting (Settings → Audiobookshelf, or sudo sparkbox set-env AUDIOBOOKSPATH /your/folder): point it at an existing audiobook library on any drive, and SparkBox restarts the app for you. Until now the only way was editing the app's compose file, which every update rewrote — that hack is no longer needed. Leaving the setting blank keeps the folder under your storage pool exactly as before. - A custom audiobook folder is treated as your data everywhere the other library folders are: a full reset names it as kept, Clean Slate refuses to touch it, and a folder on a network mount holds Docker until the mount is up. - Tom AI can now explain three more earlier releases in plain language instead of saying the fix was not recorded: why the one-click update no longer gives up on a busy box when Docker is slow to name the dashboard image; how Hearth got the Access picker for every box plus a Cloudflare Tunnel way in; and why turning Hearth on now opens that picker straight away and the guide says plainly whether your guests need to install anything. Update from the SparkBox dashboard, or run sudo sparkbox upgrade on your SparkBox host. If a problem remains after updating, submit a private support ticket or reply here.
