What can be scrobbled?

This plugin will scrobble local media and most remote streaming content. Local media should be played in Kodi library mode and you should use TVDb (for tv shows) and TMDb (for movies) as your scrapers. TV shows are identified using their TVDb ID. Movies are identified using the IMDb ID. This allows Trakt to match the correct show or movie more accurately, regardless of the title.

Remote streaming content will scrobble assuming the metadata is correctly set in Kodi. Add-ons that stream content need to correctly identify TV episodes and movies with as much metadata as possible for Trakt to know what you're watching.

Please note that something does not cover all Kodi possible streaming sources. Local files and strm files scrapped to your library should be OK, however generic third party streaming addons can fail. It is up to the developers of these addons to be supported by this plugin. Please take a look https://github.com/trakt/script.trakt/wiki/Providing-id's-to-facilitate-scrobbling

Problems?

"I found something that doesn't work"

  • Search the issues on github to see if it has already been reported, if so add your information there.
  • If not, create a new issue and provide as much data about your system as possible, a logfile will also be needed.

Creating logfiles

  • To create a logfile, enable the debug setting in Kodi AND script.trakt, otherwise the logfile won't show any data from script.trakt. Check the [Kodi documentation] (http://kodi.wiki/view/Log_file) if you don't know where your logfile can be found.
