sync/watched/movies is returning 1000 items even when user is having more.

I can’t find info about it in github discussions

This has been fixed now. Not an intended change. Sorry about that.

The API bug has been fixed.
Your issues are different.

list, not showing upp my list in search

What search? The Lists search searches all Lists on Trakt, it’s not a search amongst your own lists (yet). I just want to make sure we’re on the same page here. Please give me more info about what you are trying to do and where.

@Steffe73

not adding more than 1000 items

Where? In Lists? What list? Can you give me more? Thanks!

@Steffe73

And yes I’m I vip user, so 1000 items shouldn’t affect me, but it does.

You are not affected by VIP limits here, that’s true. But there are technical limits you are hitting because of the amount of things you are trying to create.
For instance, our database may be okay with storing 1000 lists but the API and any frontend, first-party or third-party, may have difficulties synching that many lists with that many items.
Anyway, 1000 items on one list shouldn’t be an issue but also, is a list with more than 1000 items useful for you or others? When you start having more than 1000 lists with more than one with 1000 items, you start hitting technical limits to sync, manage, and display.

I want all episodes I watched showing those blue, green, purple/ pink

You are what I call a completionist

@Steffe73

Some series like pointless have a hell of lot more episodes then 1000. And I like to see in lists both what’s done and left. I know you can do that on progress. But…..

Okay, I understand. You have a system that works for you to keep track of alternate episode orders which progress doesn’t provide.

@Steffe73

Reason for 2000+ list I like to have my dvd collection folders in disc order, that way it is easy to find what disc a certain episode is on, easier way to find that favorite episode I might wanna rewatch. Can go straight to disc instead of a hard search

Again, this could be solved with alternate oder, would you agree?
Maintaining 2000+ lists with that much episodes in them is a lot of work. It may be best to store that information as an alternate order instead of a custom list
I also see you use notes extensively. Maybe you can use notes on the history page instead, or at the Library level to keep track of where the show/season/episode actually is in your library (room, shelve,…).
I’m just trying to understand your use case to better guide you through a more sustainable solution. I’m not trying to push you to change your system but I’m foreseeing issues with technical limits.

@Steffe73

Have seen people(other users have episodes watched in xxxx. Got crazy not seeing any use for just list with episodes no seasonheads I considered it both as unnecessary, pointless, useless i could use them for copying. Haven’t seen the purpose for it until recently.. and just started to see if can find the use for it.

I understand your point of view.

[kcador (Kevin)]

Again, I appreciate how heavily you’re using the “Unlimited” parts of Trakt’s offering. It’s great to see users get value out of Trakt.

That said, I want to repeat and clarify something important. “Unlimited” means we don’t enforce an arbitrary caps for normal use, no matter if free or VIP. It doesn’t mean infinite infrastructure or unrestricted activity. There are real technical limits behind the scenes. We also have an obligation to keep the platform stable and fair for everyone.

Right now your usage is hitting levels that fall outside what we consider standard personal use. When that happens, it can impact performance and reliability for you and for other users.

We’re currently finalizing and documenting a Fair Use Policy to make this clearer for everyone. In the meantime, I’m asking you questions to see how we can scale back your usage to a more typical level.

My point: let’s talk, there’s probably a different setup that makes more sense. If you feel like what we’re asking is pushing you toward a free plan and you can work with that, that’s also okay.

Thanks for understanding.

Truly missing the reactionhere but what a way to hijack the thread.

Throwback to my useless lists comment that I can’t see because im no longer vip but this should be it
