I think I have an idea of how it might not support audio books. What if audio books had the following issue:

> There is a very noticeable pause between each track that it plays, despite the entire thing being queued.

> That pause is presumably also present when playing music, but no one notices because each song is its own track. Audiobook tracks split in places where a pause would never occur naturally.

It would almost be like it wasn't really built with audio books in mind, but was rather designed around music.

If Jellyfin was designed around music, then I would expect it to support gap-less playback out of the box. Albums where each track seamlessly transitions into the next are not that rare

		> If Jellyfin was designed around music I think what you said is a fair response to me, but I wanted to respond to this specific phrasing. I don't think Jellyfin was designed around music. I think music was an afterthought added after the fact, and shoehorned into the rest of the experience. And then I think audiobooks in jellyfin are basically an afterthought of an afterthought. (Again, I'm just responding to clarify if I accidentally conveyed a misconception about Jellyfin's music support)
