[Enhancement]: Display chapter in Android Auto #489

Open Travillion opened 1 year ago

Describe the feature/enhancement

I would love if the currently playing chapter title could be displayed in Android Auto. There is a lot of empty space underneath the book title where this could be displayed.

Came here looking to see if this was an option. Having just the book title show for every chapter is not as helpful as the chapter, especially when the cover art usually is enough to tell which book it is. Ideally, I would love if it displayed as: Book_Title Ch #: Chapter_Title

Thought I would add a couple screenshots. Android 10, Android App version 0.9.74-beta, server ABS v2.10.1. Book is a collection of MP3s, 1 per chapter. Book was downloaded to local in app storage (default storage on android 10).

Also, Book title was used in the playlist/queue, not chapter titles. IMG_20240609_171831756

Android Phone (same chapter a minute or so later) Screenshot_20240609-172043
