How to Trakt + Last.fm scrobble only for my own user? What about other users history?

Hi,

I’d like to know something about “scrobbling” music and movies, because I did not fully understand it, I guess:

As an admin, I can set up last.fm via: https://plex.tv/users/other-services
and there is a trakt plugin here: https://github.com/trakt/Plex-Trakt-Scrobbler

Connecting those two “scrobblers” with my personal accounts should only scrobbe movies/music, which I watch/listen myself.

I don’t want to scrobble all the music/movies, other users of my server watch/listen.

Can other users of my PlexServer configure their own trakt/last.fm service, so they can keep their own history apart from mine?

Is this possible?
If yes, how?

Thank you!

I cant comment on Last FM as I don’t use it.

With regards to trakt well plugins are dead, the trakt plugin partially still works but probably sooner rather than later it will not do anything.
I have no idea if its still operational but with the trakt plugin you can configure other accounts with this Configuration - trakt (for Plex)

However you can also use webhooks for trakt.
Even then there are two options.
https://plaxt.astandke.com/ If I recall it requires that you have a PlexPass… and you do.
You can create a webhook for any plex account and scrobble it to any trakt account. I seem to remember the other users do not need to have a PlexPass.

The other option for webhooks is the official Trakt one. However for every account you have to have both PlexPass and Trakt VIP. So probably not viable for everyone or indeed hardly anyone with multiple users.

Finally the downside of webhooks. They are one way. Anything you do in Plex will get pushed to Trakt. There is currently no way to pull from Trakt to Plex with webhooks.

There is a feature request for official Trakt support built in… but I certainly won’t be holding my breath. The higher echelons of Plex where very dismissive when they announced plugins were being removed and Trakt was explicitly mentioned.
Still every vote counts (or not)

@Xhaka, thank you for exlaining!

its a pitty, I’ve read a lot of useful feature requests, but it seems they’re taking a lot of time to realise. At least, when I read the comments and dates.

As we watch a lot of movies via Kodi or other players, one way trakt will not do for us.
Guess, I’ll try to go with the Plugins. Thanks for the hint with the Webhooks.

Anyone has experience with last.fm and plex excluding some libraries, say the ones, I defined as AudioBooks? As far as I tested, plex scrobbles everything to last.fm, but I don’t want Audiobooks (which are in an extra library) to be scrobbled.

I hear you. Plex don’t feel the need for Trakt whilst Emby have their own very reliable Trakt plugin.
It’s a real pity.

Just a shame it has a big that deletes your Trakt history

Interesting. Haven’t used it for a few months.
So obviously not as reliable as it used to be.

such bugs are bad, but at least, they try to help users in need :slight_smile:
