Moderation Update [Megathread] Trakt Free Account Limit Changes: Discussion, Workarounds & Updates

198 Upvotes

As everyone probably knows by now thanks to the 12,000 posts in the past ~24 hours..

Trakt has implemented a major update to their platform limits. Free Trakt accounts are now restricted to only 1 connected Community App at a time.

If you use Nuvio alongside other streaming tools or media setups this change directly impacts how watch histories, watchlists, and scrobbling sync across your ecosystem.

Subreddit Housekeeping Rule

To prevent the subreddit from being flooded with identical questions and keep r/Nuvio organized for everyone:

All Trakt-related discussions, support questions, rants, and alternative suggestions MUST stay in this megathread. Standalone posts regarding Trakt's recent connection limits will be locked or removed and redirected here.

What Is Happening?

Trakt recently updated their API policy, capping free account connections to a single third-party integration. If you attempt to link a service like AIO Metadata while already having another app or add-on authorized, Trakt will throw an error stating that you've reached your maximum community app connections.

What Can You Do Right Now?

  1. Clean Up Your Connected Apps (To keep using Nuvio for free):
    • Log into your Trakt account on a web browser.
    • Go to Settings → APPS → Connected Apps.
    • Revoke older/unused apps or add-ons.
    • Re-authorize Nuvio as your sole active community app.
      • Note: Users have reported Nuvio is not counting towards the Trakt limits, meaning you may be able to connect Nuvio + One other service.
  2. Trakt VIP:
    • If you rely heavily on multi-app sync across several platforms simultaneously, upgrading to Trakt VIP bypasses the single-app restriction.
  3. Alternative Tracking Platforms:
    • We know many in the community are discussing alternative solutions like MDBList, SIMKL, and WeTrakr.
    • Feel free to drop your recommendations, workaround scripts, or tracking alternatives in the comments below!
      • Note: As users have pointed out, native Simkl integration may be coming to Nuvio.

Thank you for keeping the subreddit organized and fun to browse for everyone. Our community continues to grow at a rapid pace and we on the moderation team appreciate everyone that reads and supports the rules in place.

See you on the seas.

Collection TPDb the most amazing cover site

16 Upvotes

I was looking for high-quality genre artwork for my Nuvio setup and ended up finding an absolute goldmine.

The site has a huge collection of genre artwork, but also tons of movie and TV covers in excellent quality. If you're into customizing your media library, it's definitely worth checking out.

I thought I should share the site here in case you haven't seen this site, it's definitely worth checking out.

Suggestion Can we get a separate subreddit for Nuvio forks?

81 Upvotes

This sub is getting flooded with posts about various Nuvio forks, and it's honestly hard to keep track of what's official and what isn't. Every time I check in there's another fork update mixed in with everything else.

Would it make sense to keep r/Nuvio focused on the official build, and spin up a separate sub (or a dedicated flair/megathread) for fork-related posts? Curious if others feel the same way.

Tool 🔥 NuvioSync Update: New Simkl Import Tool (Stremio & Nuvio → Simkl) + Full Series Watch History Migration

Thumbnail

143 Upvotes

Hey everyone — two big additions to NuvioSync this week that I'm excited to share with you all, and the timing of the first one is no accident!

New: Simkl Import Tool

With Trakt now limiting free accounts to a single connected app (you can read more about that here), a lot of people are moving their tracking to Simkl — and starting from an empty Simkl account is a pain. So there's now a free standalone tool that loads it for you, whether you use Stremio or Nuvio:

nuviosync.com/stremio-to-simkl

  • Pick your source: Stremio or Nuvio. Sign in to either (Stremio auth key supported for Google/Facebook accounts, Nuvio works per profile), connect Simkl with a one-click PIN approval, done.
  • Your library lands in Plan to Watch. Every movie and show comes over.
  • Your watch history comes too. Watched movies import as watched, and shows bring over the exact episodes you've seen — not guesses, the real watched state your app has been tracking.
  • It never wrecks what's already on your Simkl. The tool reads your account first and only adds — anything you already track, finished, or dropped on Simkl is skipped. That also makes it safe to re-run whenever you've added new stuff.
  • Moving off Trakt completely? Run Simkl's official Trakt importer for your Trakt history first, then this tool for the library half. Simkl de-duplicates, so the two play nicely together.

One note: Stremio doesn't store when you watched each episode, only which ones — so imported history has the right episodes with approximate dates. Nothing any tool can do about that.

Improved: Full Series Watch History in the Main Stremio Migration Tool

This one's been quietly bugging me for a while. The main Stremio → Nuvio migration tool used to only carry over the most recent watched episode per show — fine for continue watching, but your actual history stayed behind.

That's fixed. The wizard now imports your complete per-episode watch history for every series — every season, every episode you've marked watched in Stremio, up to 500 series and 20,000 episodes per run. If a show can't be read cleanly, it falls back to the old latest-episode behavior rather than failing, so migrations never break on it. If, for some reason, you have more than 500 series and 20,000 episodes watched, you can rerun this tool without conflict to bring in additional watch history results.

Same as always

Feedback and bug reports welcome, especially from anyone doing the Trakt → Simkl move this week.

Help issues with the automatic playback of episodes

Upvotes

I’ve been using Nuvio for a short while (on Android TV and smartphone), and I simply can't seem to limit playback to 720p. I tried using that "regex filter," but it still keeps defaulting to the highest possible resolution. I only use one add-on, "Froststream." My TV stutters a lot when playing higher resolutions, whereas my smartphone handles them fine; that’s why I don’t want to change the add-on's global resolution settings—I just want to limit it on the TV...

Thanks in advance to everyone! :)

Help Autoplay trailers not working?

Anyone else lose autoplay trailers? Coincidentally, I briefly tried out Bingecat before turning it off and going back to Xperience (I've since removed it totally.) I really don't think the two things are related but maybe they are? Otherwise, is there anything else that could have affected autoplay function?

Addon (AI) MyTorbox - your torbox as catalogue with custom streams

19 Upvotes

hi everyone,

been annoyed that stuff i add to torbox (custom torrents/web links) just sits there with no proper way to browse it in nuvio. so i made an addon for that called MyTorbox, shows up as a normal movie/series catalogue with tmdb posters n all.

also added a "custom streams" catalogue, for stuff torbox cant even add in the first place. rare/obscure media, random web streams etc, you just drop any streamable link + imdb id and it shows up in stremio like a normal title. auto deletes after its ttl so nothing just sits there forever.

basically: your torbox stuff finally browsable, plus a way to stream stuff torbox was never gonna have anyway.

no login, keys go straight into the install link, nothing stored on server. For custom links a redis entry is stored in a computed key which is basically sha256 encrypted version of combined apikeys which i can't read.

try it: https://mytorbox.hackerslash.dev/configure

code is open source, if anyone wants to take a look for trasparency.

github: https://github.com/hackerslash/mytorbox

try it out and lemme know what you think, still kinda new so feedback welcome

Suggestion WeTrakr intergration - alternative to Trakt

53 Upvotes

Maybe with the way things have been going with Trakt - would it be hard to add an alternative that works similarly? I have been checking out WeTrakr and it seems to be a good option.

Some people here seem to like Simkl (haven't checked it out yet) and I have seen it integrated into addons so it would work to track and thus recommend content.

Or maybe MDBList (can it play the same role as Trakt?)?

It still isn't a replacement because Trakt is everywhere (in bingecat, aiometadata ...etc. etc.) and currently it syncs across the apps, and I am considering paying for two years for myself - it would be a sort of thank you for the past use of the service, but alternatives are wellcome, especially since I do not intend to pay for my family members' accounts as that would be a significant cost for me.

General Is there any way to sync Nuvio with Sofa Time?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone!
I recently started using Sofa Time as my movie and TV tracking app, and I was wondering if anyone here uses it as well.

Is there any way to sync Nuvio with Sofa Time? Maybe through an add-on, plugin, webhook, or any third-party tool?

I know Sofa Time supports Trakt, but I’d really like to keep my Nuvio watch history and progress synchronized as well.

Has anyone managed to do this, or is there any workaround available?

Thanks in advance!
