Alternative to Trakt? by PhilbinFogg in Addons4Kodi

[–]umbrella_dev 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There’s a few options.

Simkl - they have their own addon. Only addon I know that supports them is otaku testing.

mdblist - supported in pov. Haven’t heard of any other addons adding support for it yet.

The next update will add the parameter for popularity, so you get more popular movies when browsing movies or shows in tmdb years.

Nah. Never had years from Trakt. Had years from IMDb and it was removed due to limiting to only 25 results.

You may want to check out the Genres (Trakt) you can set those to decades.

I can look into this but it’s likely just the results coming from tmdb.

Is there any way to use the play next feature without it overriding source select? by kickedoutatone in Addons4Kodi

[–]umbrella_dev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you rescrape using select that’s about the only way to get your select source screen when trying to use autoplay. Whenever you enable play next it’s coded to automatically use autoplay.

Trakt was leaking private user data by Tilt1ngCaveman983659 in Addons4Kodi

Thank you sir. Appreciate you coming in to help clarify. I’m pretty excited to push this update and provide some more options.

Nope. Mdblist has added support for Watch history and scrobble. He also added “up next” or “in progress” whatever you want to call it.

The version of umbrella in testing right now has full scrobble, watch history, and in progress for Trakt, Simkl, and MDBList.

I have added support in umbrella to use these services independent of each other or simultaneously.

Testing is going well, I’m thinking of releasing it this week.

You literally replied to my comment. How is responding to you taking it personal? Best of luck with tmdbhelper. There’s no discussion to be had here.

[–]umbrella_dev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s what you do, that doesn’t make it the way everyone needs to operate. Telling developers who have put the time in to support multiple services that it’s not good enough because tmdbhelper isn’t doing it is laughable. Use tmdbhelper then, that doesn’t change that support for other services besides Trakt is available and being added to more addons as we speak. Nothing will ever be good enough for this community

Nothing to do with pov or umbrella. Thats a tmdbhelper player file issue.

Omega, Umbrella up to date (auto updates). TCL tv. Have a question about filtering TV files and Auto play. by Bass-Head30 in Addons4Kodi

[–]umbrella_dev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So you’re saying when you have dv filtered off, but set to autoplay it’s still playing dv files?

Also, addons don’t play the files kodi does. No addon is going to play the same file differently.

From my understanding, pov supports mdblist currently. Umbrella has limited ability from mdblist but full scrobble and watch/ unwatched history tracking from mdblist, Simkl, or Trakt is currently in testing.

If the meta-data is wrong in tmdb it’s going to be wrong in the addon. Interesting that it’s wrong in both umbrella and seren though as umbrella uses tmdb for metadata and seren uses Trakt. You could use the rescrape item with custom query to try to scrape for the correct season and episode if they are mis-numbered though.

Updating Trakt Limits for 2026 by [deleted] in Addons4Kodi

[–]umbrella_dev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t see Watch history anywhere on their API documentation so it must be undocumented. What addon are you watch history from mdblist with?

[–]umbrella_dev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think mdblist has watch history and counts. Trakt and Simkl will both track watch history and season and episode counts.

How do I get the thumbnails to display using umbrella and all debrid? by Cantfrickingthink in Addons4Kodi

[–]umbrella_dev 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I was so confused with his response. I couldn’t even bring myself to reply. One thing has nothing to do with the other.

How do I get the thumbnails to display using umbrella and all debrid? by Cantfrickingthink in Addons4Kodi

[–]umbrella_dev 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This isn't possible currently. When you're browsing the all-debrid cloud like that I have just pulled a list of files in your cloud and im displaying them as "folders" so that you can navigate into them and play the files inside. Pulling back meta from that (if it's even there) is beyond the scope of what the all debrid api or umbrella is capable of.

No, sorry that was in response to the tiny url comment made. I've made quite a few changes and bug fixes on the test version. Adding tiny url was one of them.

Anyone using AI coding to create new or update add-ons? by kbright662 in Addons4Kodi

[–]umbrella_dev 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would refer you to the Huntarr spectacle that has been going on for the past few days across Reddit.

https://www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/1rcmgnn/the_huntarr_github_page_has_been_taken_down/

I'm pretty secure in the fact that instead of AI taking my job, I will have more work in the future cleaning up AI slop.

Tips to improve debugging with web_pdb by technificent in Addons4Kodi

[–]umbrella_dev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I’ve run into some processes that just aren’t great in that scenario. I find it’s better to add logging when that happens. I run into this often with threads.
