Plex Sync BETA

I tried just now. It just says “Sync was queued” or something; a green banner at the top. But then nothing. No new entries in the latest syncs. Nothing has changed on plex side or network since Nov 11, when the last sync was. Yesterday I watched ep5 of Alien Earth and the day before newest episode of It:Derry (and a bunch of other stuff since) but none of them are picked up. I can see them in the Plex history on the server.

I can’t see any error, since I guess the error happens on Trakt backend side. I can’t see any errors in the console on Plex side when I try to queue a sync either. I chose the “Sync only new item”. I don’t want a bunch of duplicate stuff in my Trakt account.

Is there anything more I can test?

It can take a few hours in my experience for a sync to show up. But I do think it’s currently broken again. Mine stopped syncing about 3 hours ago with the Plex page showing a red banner I needed to select libraries yet it showed them all selected. I’m waiting to see if it starts back up again.

I’ll also observe here for @justin that I think there’s something not working quite right with syncing the Watch List aspect. As you can see my Plex has 219 items watch listed, Trakt only picking up 186 of them. Additionally as you can see with both lists set to “Date Added” the lists differ.

Good day,

It would be great if the sync could detect when an item has already been marked as watched through another app like Infuse. Right now many entries get duplicated, which clutters the history. A check for existing scrobbles would prevent that.

Following up, my Plex sync is no longer adding all movies to my Trakt library as HDR Dolby Vision in error. Thank you for fixing this!

Howdy @justin I trust you’re well! Sorry for being a seeming endless pain in the rear, but wanted to bubble up this post again.

The normal sync works like a charm now after someone greased it in the back, BUT it seems the original problem of it having synced everything to watched somehow wrecked my watched sync to today.

I can’t get my watched to sync at all and it’s stuck from when the first incident happened. On the 21st of October the first “normal” sync happened that fixed the stuck syncs from September.

Before that, everything synced into the “Watched” tab and since 21st of October (when the normal syncs started) my watched just never syncs.

Could you please advise how to get this going? It’s a key feature for Trakt for me and I’m not sure I want Columbo to be my last watched thing in this lifetime :laughing:
