I just looked in up and it seems like CHAP frames does not need a CTOC frame but it is still recommended.
For now I will just remove the CTOC frame but it would be nice with a better solution.
@lullius hey... what happened to pylibby? i am not able to see the repo
@lullius i dont have that.... i just checked the repo and it is gone.
@lullius ok. i feel your concern. would it be possible for you to take that development "away from your person"? say someone not you? like me for example or any other random non-american?
i am VERY passionate about these things and i am willing to take the blame in "american courts" if that means supporting this project.
I was hoping that we could in future like go and implement this as a backend for lazylibrarian so that we could search for a book, the app would show "here is a copy available on libby, do you want to borrow or hold" and auto download when ready and listen. popcorntime for audiobooks.
there are endless possibilities around audiobooks.
anyway, how is the current audiobook-dl project any different? forget about bookbeat but why remove support for libby or is that working here? i see support for overdrive but not libby here
@test2a I think Libby is just an app for Overdrive. audiobook-dl should work with any audibook on Libby.
@jo1gi sure but overdrive is about to be discontinued in a short period of time. Will that still work or should we use code from pylibby?
@test2a Is it only the Overdrive app that is going to be discontinued or is it also the websites?
@test2a I looked it up. It is only the app. audiobook-dl uses the websites api, so it shouldn't affect audiobook-dl when the app is discontinued.
@jo1gi alright. that makes me more confident.
I'm getting a crash when trying to download audiobooks with more than 256 chapters.
ValueError: bytes must be in range(0, 256)
It seems CTOC can't take more than 256 child_element_ids. If I limit the range to 255 it works fine: https://github.com/jo1gi/audiobook-dl/blob/7ff13271e32012fa26c4138735e420d951f84f3b/audiobookdl/output/metadata.py#L72
I also noticed that even if some chapters aren't in child_element_ids they still work fine in mpv and show up in ffprobe. They even work without CTOC. Should we split the chapters up in multiple CTOCs? Do we need the CTOC at all?
