  • I'm fine with the basics of Plex - now what can I do to really use plex to it's full potential?
    4 projects | /r/PleX | 9 Dec 2023
    The last tool is PlexTraktSync. This will be able to sync your Plex server with your Trakt account 2-ways instead of only 1 way (and then also only "scrobble" with the Plex Webhook). An example of how I use it: PlexTraktSync has two modes, running "normally" in which the sync is happening once and a "watch" mode which scrobbles the currently watching states to trakt. I run in watch mode all the time but then also run a sync once a day. What this will do is that Trakt will automatically be updated with what I currently watch but when something is missed it will be updated the next sync. And since it is a 2-way sync, I can watch something (and it is updated on trakt that I watched it) and then rate it on trakt and the next day that rating is also set in Plex again.
  • IMDB Trakt Watchlist/Rating Syncer Tool (sync both ways)
    3 projects | /r/trakt | 19 Nov 2023
    I spent some time working on this tool called IMDB-Trakt-Syncer which syncs user watchlist, ratings and comments for Movies, TV Shows and Episodes both ways between IMDB and Trakt. Also syncs episode ratings. You can use this script alongside PlexTraktSync and TMDB-Trakt-Syncer to get your ratings syncs across all 4 platforms! It should work on any OS. The project's Github repository and source code can be found here.
  • Ratings after file renames
    1 project | /r/PleX | 7 Nov 2023
    That is why I use PlexTraktSync to automatically push my watched status and rating to Trakt and also pull it from there (2-Way Sync) so that it isn't exclusively available in Plex (because of the already mentioned "when metadata gets deleted, everything is gone")

    Did you read the documentation? It's two way sync plex-to-trakt and trakt-to-plex. Look at config if isn't disabled https://github.com/Taxel/PlexTraktSync/blob/main/plextraktsync/config.default.yml
  • Is Trakt Worth it, what benefits do you get?

  • Sync watched in one profile into other profiles?
    2 projects | /r/PleX | 31 May 2023
    My tentative plan is to use two instances of PlexTraktSync to have one directional sync from our shared Plex profile to our individual Trakt profiles (if we watch something together in Plex mark it as watched for each of us in Trakt) and then two more instances for one directional sync from our individual Trakt profiles to our individual Plex profiles.
  • API?

    PS : I know that there is alternatives PlexTraktSync data I did not got running because Docks would not work properly (Windows environment), Plex Scrobbler that demands VIP and PASS, this might be a solution but im not paying just to try it out, Plex-Trakt-Scrobbler that is a old plugin since 2018, there is no longer any support for plugins, it might be able to install it anyway but it may not work properly.

  • TMDB Trakt Rating Syncer Tool (2 way sync)
    7 projects | /r/trakt | 16 May 2023
    I made another tool called TMDB-Trakt-Syncer which syncs ratings for Movies and TV Shows both ways between TMDB and Trakt. Also syncs episode ratings. You can use this script alongside PlexTraktSync and IMDb-Trakt-Syncer to get your ratings syncs across all 4 platforms! It should work on any OS.
