So thanks to this community, I have found the wonders of Audiobookshelf! Seems very promosing so far, but my main gripe is with my folder structure. I am therefore wondering if there is any media sorter tools out there? I’m thinking something along the lines of https://github.com/jpillora/media-sort (for plex) that I can use to sort the files into a supported folder structure for ABS, but even better would be if it also had a metadata agent that created an .obf file with common information.

If anyone has any tips it would be greatly appreciated, even if it’s some script that someone uses for own personal use that they wouldn’t mind sharing, I’m not closed to doing some coding work myself in order to get this right.

So OpenAudible kinda gives me the information I need in the metadata, so I ended up making a simple python script that copies them around based on that.
