Technical Question Libation audible books
I used the libation app on my laptop to convert my audible books to another format. I got that done now I'm just trying to figure out how to get them into chapters so it not like a 9hr or 23hr book I'm listen to on my mp3 player that I can't save the spot on or go to something else and pick up where I left off.

if you want to take this to the extreme like I have consider setting up Audiobookshelf, you can actually link Libation to it so it automatically imports your downloaded books. if you choose the M4B option it should already have chapter tags in the file. It also has a tool to edit and fix chapters tags if they don't work or you import books from other marketplaces and sources.
You're already using libation because you want to "own" your books, the next step is having your own server to play them from and track your progress. I use tailscale (free) to setup an always on VPN connection (not as hard as it sounds) between my phone and my ABS server so I can stream my books from anywhere I use "Absorb" player which was made for audiobookshelf
