So this player is pretty much unusable; maybe it's some kind of alpha version they used to test the audio playing capacity of the device before the real player's interface was developped, or maybe it's something they slapped together very quickly so people who tinker with their devices could have some fun with mp3s.
The player for audiobooks purchased from kobo is definitely different.

Not even beta. LOL
I’ve never noticed before, but what format are Kobo’s audio books in? I wouldn’t be surprised if it was proprietary in some way. Apple uses .m4b for its audio books. If you convert a mp3 audiobook to an m4a file, then rename it to m4b, suddenly it behaves like an official audio book. I’ll have to search the forum to see what others have done.
