A year ago I released the original Plaxt, which got way more love and attention than I ever expected!

Today I launched a new, full rewrite! It’s much faster and more reliable, and hosted with high availability, load balancing, and monitoring that will let me know as soon as issues develop. Also, I don’t have to pay Heroku to host the damn thing any more, since I’m running it right on my colocated Plex server!

Setup is a snap, just enter your username, authorize with trakt, and copy the URL into Plex’s webhooks.

Without further ado, here’s the new app: https://plaxt.astandke.com/

I’ve also published the full source code, as well as instructions for setting up your own instance with Docker right here on GitHub.

If you’re scrobbling with the old app, please update your webhooks ASAP! I will leave the old instance running for 3 months (at $7 a month, thank you very much), but after that it’s sayonara. Let me know if you experience any issues authorizing or scrobbling here, or leave an Issue on the github repo.

Posted an issues about not scrobbling … https://github.com/XanderStrike/goplaxt/issues/5

Is it possible to scrobble all the previous play history instead of just the newly played?

6

No, webhooks are only sent when you play a media object.

7

Is this only for what’s playing or do you also push collected shows and episodes to Trakt?

Hello, I recently noticed my managed users are scrobbling to my trakt, is there a way to filter the scrobbles for only specific user(s) ?

9

Use a different webhook for each user

10

Sure, but the problem is the managed users are all under my plex user, and I don’t see anything that can split them out, aside from creating all new plex accounts for each managed user (not desirable, or feasible).

I have shared my server with multiple friends and family (they have their own accounts, i just share libraries with them). Previously i used the trakt plugin which gave one watch history for all users (messing up my “on deck” and “recently watched”).
Does this solution keep my watch history/on deck for me alone?

12

Not sure about this app but you can filter users with the Trakt plugin. Also client names and IPs.

I have multiple users using two servers and the trakt plugin works fine and syncs everything correctly… just don’t use the plugin settings ever… even the developer of the plugin (before he disappeared) stated for anyone wanting to sync more than 1 user should totally ignore all the settings in the plugin itself and use the config page instead.

As for webhhooks "if you have a single server* life is much simpler. You can set up a webhook for each user and it will push anything they watch to their own personal trakt account.
