I have an Android reader app that shows the percentage of the book/album that I played, I was just wondering if Musicbee can replicate it.

You'll find a pic of the Android app I'm using here

Add the "Played %" column to your view ("Set Displayed Fields...")

I don't think it'll work for albums.  Only individual tracks.  Keeping track of that figure is enabled by default for audiobooks, disabled by default for music.  You can turn it on for tracks on the "Settings" page for that track (SHIFT+ENTER)

@Frankz:  is that a custom or virtual tag you created?  I can't find 'Played %' among 'Other fields'.  Nor can I find the setting you're talking about in track/Edit/Settings.

Sorry, it's "% Played."  I have it in my audiobooks tab under available .  Maybe it's not available on music library panels?

This is where you toggle tracking of playback progress on and off:

@Frank: 
The good news is:  I found that field indeed... under podcasts (as you say).  (More good news:  always glad to find out new things merely by following the forum :-D )
The bad news:  I'm afraid it's not available for Library Music...

Thanks for posting the screenshot.  Of course, yes. 
(I couldn't find it, coz I had something else in mind (what doesn't make sense after all...) never mind... ;-) )

@7amza:  guess you'll have to post this as a wishlist item...
(field setting for %Track and/or %Album)

Yeah @Bizy figured as much, I just started using MB, and the amount of customization is both fascinating and overwhelming.

Thanks for the tips, both of you guys.

I still can't see %played on my "Set Displayed Fields".

I'm a bit slow, so here are the columns I see.

@7amza:  can't see it either (and I assume nobody can ;-) only with podcasts...)
