"Watch Date" in Trakt

Hello,

today I wanted to sync my watch history to Trakt, so I linked a fresh account in the settings in addition to the SeriesGuide Cloud. That did not sync historic entries immediately, so I disabled the SeriesGuide Cloud temporarily and synced manually.

That transferred all data to Trakt but the “watch date” was reset to the current timestamp, both in Trakt and the SeriesGuide app. I recovered by disabling Trakt again and restoring a local backup.

Is there any way to sync the correct date for each episode to Trakt?

SeriesGuide doesn’t keep a record of when you have watched something, but Trakt does. So when you connect an empty Trakt account, episodes and movies will be marked watched at the time of the sync.

It seems I was misled by the history which displays that information for the recently watched episodes.

I am curious though: If SeriesGuide does not store that information, how does “Sort by: Last watched” work? Is this stored by show and not by episode?

That is how it works!
