You can use MT just fine without trakt, trakt is just an addition, right… So once you’ve imported your movies and series it will keep track of episodes and such. I started using mediatracker not too long ago. In the beginning just for testing because i was in the same boat as you, i wanted something that i could implement in HA for movies, series and games. For now i have just added stuff manually, I haven’t really looked into all the features because I spent time integrating mediatracker calendar component and card, as well as a python api wrapper.
I haven’t bothered with scrobbling in MT but of course that’s a nice feature. I am not actively on trakt but use it more for scrobbling from jellyfin, and locally I’m running something called jellyseerr.
I recently got my rasberry pi and set up home assistant for the first time.
Tracking books and other media is a feature I definitely want for my home.
Is there a best practice for integrating other services? I.e. MediaTracker can be installed as a npm package as well as a docker image. Are there any pros/cons for one way or the other? Which method was your choice and why?
Thanks! Just installed it @jonkristian Your card does not work for me.
What refresh interval do you recommend?
Will the card also show “watched” marked series and movies?
Can you maybe post your settings of the card you use?
