For the record, in case someone comes back here looking for a solution...yes, you must first combine the mp3 files into a single file (or groups of files) to create continuous-flowing chapters. I usually convert my mp3 audiobooks into 10-chapter chunks.

For Linux users:

1. Open a terminal window
2. Navigate to the directory containing the mp3 files (e.g., cd ~/blah)
3. Enter: cat *.mp3 >> Sample.mp3

For Windows users:

1. Open a command prompt
2. Navigate to the directory containing the mp3 files (e.g., cd c:\blah)
3. Enter: type *.mp3 >> Sample.mp3

The above steps concatenate (join) all mp3 files in a given directory to a single file, leaving the original file in tact.

Cheers
