Session times

[samweeber123-cpu]

Anyway to make the sessions times count as the whole reading time? For example, when I read through storyteller every sync window will count as its own session. My sync window is every 3 minutes so if I read for 30 minutes, it will count it as 10 reading sessions 3 minutes each. I want to know if there is a way to make it count as one single session.

BookBridge's own reading history already merges Storyteller syncs into one session, but the listening time it sends to Audiobookshelf doesn't: with Count as Listening Time on (Storyteller settings), each sync opens and closes its own ABS listening session. With a 3-minute sync, a 30-minute read shows up in ABS as ten 3-minute sessions.

For now, a longer sync period gives fewer, longer sessions. Turning Count as Listening Time off stops them entirely, but ABS then won't count your Storyteller time. I'm looking at keeping one ABS session open for a whole sitting so it records a single session, as the ABS apps do.

Okay yes I was mainly asking because on ABS I always see a lot of 3 minute sessions. Any idea when you plan on rolling that out?

Testing it locally now. It will be on dev branch for beta testing either tonight or tomorrow and will be included in the next release if everything works.

Awesome, thank you!
