Also a little tricky to use at first. Here&#8217;s my guide&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>1.<\/strong> Right-click <em>in the waveform<\/em>, at the point you want to bookmark. Add bookmark. This gives you the expected minutes\/seconds bookmark. (You can also bookmark by right-clicking a file in the playlist as it is playing).<\/p>\n<p><strong>2.<\/strong> Double-clicking on the Bookmark starts the file at 0:00. Not good, and this may be confusing a lot of people. What you actually need to do is right-click and choose &#8220;Play selected files&#8221;, and then it starts <em>at the timestamp you selected<\/em> in the waveform.  This might better be renamed &#8216;Play from Bookmark timestamp&#8217; in future.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3.<\/strong> Right-clicking a set bookmark also lets you edit the timestamp to finesse it exactly.<\/p>\n<p>You also need to flick the &#8216;repeat&#8217; button off, when switching from repeating music to an audiobook in multiple files.<\/p>\n<p>None of this is ideal, but I don&#8217;t know of any better bookmarking audiobook player for .MP3 files.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The fine free audio player AIMP has been released in version 5.
