Audible settings

Settings > Audible is where accounts connect and syncing and downloading are tuned. How the feature works is on the Audible page.

Accounts

Connecting an account takes a Marketplace, a Display Name and the Redirect URL that Amazon sends back after you sign in. Each account keeps its own library. If an account needs to sign in again, sign in on the same account instead of deleting it. Deleting drops its library and removes its device from Audible.

Schedule

Setting	Effect
Auto Sync	Sync the library on a schedule
Sync on Account Add	Sync as soon as an account is connected
Frequency	Daily, weekly or monthly. Weekly adds Day of Week. Monthly adds Day of Month (1-28).
Time	Hour and minute
Use CRON Expression	A custom cron expression replaces the options above

Download Settings

Setting	Default	Effect
Mirror Audible library to ABM	on	Each sync adds the Audible books that aren’t in ABM yet and downloads the ones without files, up to 25 per sync. Turning it on shows how many books the next sync will add and download. See Mirror Audible library to ABM
Concurrent Downloads	2	1 to 5. Higher is faster and can hit Audible’s rate limits.
Preferred Quality	High	High or Normal. This is the quality ABM asks Audible for on every download
Delete Encrypted Files	on	Remove the encrypted AAXC file after it is decrypted to M4B
Temp Download Path	empty	Empty uses the system temp folder

Download failures are retried by themselves a few times, with a delay that widens, and an outage that outlasts that re-queues the task for up to six hours. A licence denial, an unowned book or a decryption failure fails once.

Connection Diagnostics

Pick an account and run diagnostics. It tests FFmpeg, credentials, the API connection and download capability, and shows your outgoing IP as Audible sees it.
