6 years ago Hi there,
Thanks for all the explanation in your report. However, you didn't say what was and was not working with TraktForVLC. Do you see things appearing on trakt.tv while watching or not at all ?
Now let me reply to a few of your concerns:
- You don't have to change anything in the lua config, and besides adding
traktin the list of modules to load, TraktForVLC shouldn't impact any other plugin - Connections to port 1984 is because you're on Windows and the port 1984 is used for the TraktForVLC service in Python that's used for resolution and all (the
trakt_helper) - The message you see at the beginning after that connection is merely TraktForVLC checking for available updates
- TraktForVLC is still in alpha, so please ideally use the latest releases to keep up with the latest bug fixes (I'm not releasing a new alpha per bugfix)
Regarding your logs:
- In the first one, everything seems to be in order, the media was resolved
- In the second one, I don't see any TraktForVLC logs beside the check for update... But those logs are difficult to read as they do not seem to be prefixed by the lua module generating them (so, in this case,
[trakt])

Hi Xaf and anyone else. I've been struggling with this issue for a week and hope I can get some help.
As said in the title, basically, I can't get TraktForVLC to work at all. I've tried multiple of the latest dev releases including the original 2.0.0a2 and up to the latest release TraktForVLC_2.0.0a2.dev14.g31faf4b_windows_x86.exe (Using VLC 2.2.6 32-bit/x86).
I will attach a portion of one log file and then a full one, but let me say that I have inspected the debug messages many many times for different files of both TV and movies, and while there has been some variation, the one thing I feel I keep seeing over and over again is some variation of:
But I have no idea if this is actually part of the issue or not. Running Netstat in Administrator Command Prompt I usually see 1 or more multiple listings of:
While VLC and the media file are running.
I also usually see in every log some variation of:
Again, I don't know how pertinent to the issue these are.
Some steps I have taken (not necessarily in order and not always just once): -Uninstall/Reinstall TraktForVLC and try different releases going back to original 2.0.0.a2. -Revoke Access on Trakt, and then re-run authorization using "init_trakt_auth". -Make sure both incoming and outgoing for VLC is unblocked in Windows Firewall. -Change port in config .json file to the default one I see in VLC's Lua interface settings which is 4212.
None of these steps have been successful.
Also, I will note that there has been some strange behavior: -The first time I tried to install TFVlc, everything seemed to go as it should. The VLC player popped up and immediately gave me the Auth Code which worked. BUT, every time after this I have re-run the auth, or completely reinstalled TFVlc, the VLC player pops up and runs the logo video repeatedly without giving me a code until I pause it. And even before I figured out I had to pause it, it wouldn't give me a code so I'd close it, but then the next media file I tried would pause and give me a code, sometimes it would do this many, many times in a row when playing same or different media files.
-I use a VLC remote Android App which uses the VLC "web" interface option, port 8080, and requires me to use a password I put into the LUA http password section in VLC's settings. Ever since I started trying to use TFVlc, this remote no longer works. I know this isn't your problem, but is TFVLC putting in some sort of password into the lua http password field in settings that isn't specified in the README or config?
I will now get to the log files. This first is just a portion of a log file because it's so long (I have also redacted some information such as filenames):
This second log file is the latest using latest version of TFVLC. I played a TV episode (different from first log file episode) and let it play for 30 seconds, skipped around and to the end and played the last 30 minutes and then let it finish:
Thank you for your time in this matter and I really hope someone can help me out. The only reason I even signed up for Trakt was because it had a VLC plugin, spent hours adding episodes I'd watched to Trakt, and if I can't get this to work then Trakt is kind of useless to me and I wasted a lot of time.
Again, thanks.
