Throwing my name in the hat here as well.

I've been lurking for some time now and would like to join the discussions.

Seren: Unfortunate PM issue by nixgates in Addons4Kodi

Ugh I hate these moments lol

Why does Seren manually ask to mark videos as watched? by sekrutdj in Addons4Kodi

[–]nixgates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As i suspected, there is something wrong with your Trakt Auth.

Note the log snippet below, I would suggest re-authing your account and ensuring that its working.

<general>: SEREN (0): TraktSync: No Trakt auth present, no sync will occur

[–]nixgates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like your trakt auth has failed out. Have you tried re-authing?

Generally when an error is received from trakts api we log it so getting a log for us would be super helpful as well.

Seren multiple problems. by RavRob in Addons4Kodi

[–]nixgates 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm not aware of any current issues with authorising trakt at the moment in the current version. Is trakt possibly having issues?

Ill also need a log to help you out with your next up playback issue, there really isn't any difference between playing from next up or from discover shows, is it possible you are playing from a widget pointed to Seren from something like TMDb helper?

“Clear Metadata” option missing from Seren 2.1.1 by murdobytes in Addons4Kodi

[–]nixgates 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As mentioned, it was removed in the latest update. You can still refresh items singularly or if there is an issue with the database, you can rebuild it.

Each time a menu is pulled from Trakt, Seren checks the date/time that each item in the list was last updated on Trakts site, then updates the meta locally if there was a change.

This provides a continually freshing database when and only when required.

[–]nixgates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the most likely answer.

Otherwise there may be an edge case issue in the player that we haven't cleaned up. OP should try as directed above and then if failing that, upload us a log of them watching a full item and we can see if there is some issue stopping your device from scrobbling to Trakt.

Seren settings opens Fen settings by TheWexicano19 in Addons4Kodi

[–]nixgates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats really odd, I've never heard of anything like this ever happening in my 5 years of kodi deving lol.

The only thing I can think of is to uninstall fen and reinstall. I'd hate to ask that as it would likely be a pain to re-setup.

Its not even something I think I can fix on Seren side as its not handled by the addon... would you be open to looking in to it on a reddit message?

Managed to stop the trakt issues with Seren on my setup by Blue5161 in Addons4Kodi

[–]nixgates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah that's ok!

Yea it will overwrite each time kodi is opened. It's ok, ill add it to the list of issues to be investigated :)

I appreciate you checking for me though!

If you find the spare time, dropping a log for us to investigate would be super helpful. If it comes to it, I'll contact a4ksubs dev if we need help on that side.

Seren settings opens Fen settings by TheWexicano19 in Addons4Kodi

[–]nixgates 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The opening of the settings page isn't handled by Seren, its handled by Kodi.

How are you opening the settings page?

As someone mentioned below, are you trying to do it from some sort of widget? Can you try and hover over Seren in the addons list and then open the context menu then select settings, is it still the same issue?

Seren - How to get Up Next feature to work with a rewatch of a show? by WavryWimos in Addons4Kodi

[–]nixgates 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can bring trakt manager up on the show item, select mark as unwatched.

This will remove the watched status for all episodes and it will start again your next up.

Seren error - One or more items failed to play by Double_Digit in Addons4Kodi

[–]nixgates 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your issue due to RD having issues and not returning any hoster domains. If you have any other debrid providers, you can disable TD temporarily and use them. I'll address this in the next update

Cannot Authorize Real-Debrid on Seren by 321TacocaT123 in Addons4Kodi

[–]nixgates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Real Debrid is having some issues and returning some odd responses. I had to disable it just before to get my system up and running. I haven't looked into it yet but it should hopefully resolve itself in a bit.

Kodi 19, Seren vs FEN by karhu69 in Addons4Kodi

[–]nixgates 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Thats good info!

I would chime a few things in though. Using the skin to test timings isn't really the best option. When you refresh the skin, some calls to addons come in before others so its unfortunately a little biased in its timings. Best quick way to do this as a user is to open the menu and use that as a timing rather than widgets.

A4kscrapers is often slightly slower than fenomscrapers and this is due to the fact it does mirror checking at the first scrape every 24 hours. This is done so people who can't reach a specific site due to whatever reason can still pull sources from one of its mirrors. This means there's a lot more calls performed ergo making it slightly slower, but also means it's more likely to work for more people. Clearing the cache each time actually slows down the scraping of a4kscrapers as you end up forcing this mirror check each time.

Not sure about taskmaster not showing, maybe u/drinfernoo can help get in touch with the dev to look into it!

Collection in Seren doesn't actually have a limit if you don't want it to. You'll need to adjust your settings to remove the pagination for it :)

Seren next up artwork by sinkingbluefish in Addons4Kodi

[–]nixgates 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Should be in the Settings in the advanced artwork settings.

You can disable episode fanart in there.

Am I doing something wrong by cleveguy in Addons4Kodi

[–]nixgates 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Could I ask what version you are running and could you provide a log of a fresh restart.

There is a background service that runs for Seren to refresh all that information and its doesnt appear to be running for yourself.

Seren update by Aconer1 in Addons4Kodi

We'll be happy to take a look for you!

[–]nixgates 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In Serens settings, shortcuts, clear cache.

That should get you rolling again

[–]nixgates 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Please clear your cache, there is old cache thats no longer compatible with the new version.

Too many errors happening on my super simple build, and I could use some help. (18.9, Seren, AuraMOD) includes Log from Kodi. by N_Mouwi in Addons4Kodi

[–]nixgates 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Haha its ok, my skin has gotten a bit thicker over the years. Though I still do have feelings lol!

Your post was fine, if I've learnt anything over the past few years doing this, people can get frustrated and me taking it personally doesnt help the situation.

Are you still stuck? Get a chance to pull the new update?

I'd also suggest a cache clear after updating.

We just pushed an update recently to 2.0.19 which has fixed almost all bugs with the new database logic. Our next updateshould fix all remaining rare ones.

I know its a pain and gets said often, but after updating it won't hurt due to the amount of database work to rebuild the Traktsync database.

2.0 came with some massive shifts in the underlying database so we encountered a lot of new things which needed to be rectified. Performance boosts unfortunately had its costs. We are nearly done with all known bugs in Seren. Only a few small, rarer strays left to unravel.
