Add TMDB as an alternative to pull TV data
I've been using trakt a lot, I have a lot of different shows on my progress list, and recently I have started to notice that TVDB has some stupid rules, and don't allow certain shows to be added.
I propose that there should be a way for a specific show to pull its data from TMDB instead, that doesn't have those stupid rules, I don't know how hard that would be to implement, but since the website already pulls the data for movies from TMDB, I hope not a lot.
In last resort case, there should be a way to…62 votes -
Idea: Community Moderators
Hi,
Trakt is growing bigger and bigger, with the new v2 it's obvious that you guys are a little bit shortstaffed.
It isn't easy to manage 800k users and this huge pile of data with 10 people or something like that. hence, there is a need for external voluntary help.
For example, you have GoodReads, it's a huge social network for books, it relays on a 'librarian' system where people can apply to be a 'librarian', a librarian can add books and edit current ones, add posters and stuff like that, then there's superior librarians who have more power and…

Graphically present timeline of watched/collected episodes
I think it would be cool and useful if the progress bars in the watched/collected screens was filled by what episodes you've seen, so that if there's a 3 season show, and you've seen season two, the 33% of the bar filled would be in the middle of the progress bar. Gives a nice one-look view of whether you are missing any of the latest episodes.
For a graphical representation, see https://www.dropbox.com/s/j5wdnn22x58c9w1/trakt-idea.jpg?dl=0

News and articles about shows, movies, etc
I wonder if would be good a main page with news related to series or movies, news in general so we can use trakt for something more than just selecting what we see.. to use it like a real and trustworthy entertainment website.
Perhaps with a section dedicated to detect series that you've seen or are in your watchlist, so that you go there knowing that you'll read something of your interest.

Compare watched progress with another user
Compare your watchprogress with another user (like e.g. in steam).
Would be nice to have the possibility to compare the own progress with one (ore more) other users side-by-side.
Like http://support.trakt.tv/forums/188762-general/suggestions/3595512-compare-watchlists-with-another-user- this could increase the social process, like whatching episodes, which both are missing together and so on

Status: canceled
It would be cool if on the status of a series, those that were canceled showed up as canceled. There ia a big difference in "ended" (has an ending) and "canceled" (has no ending, normally).

Adjust "up next" episodes to be selected as earliest unwatched episode for people skipping around a series.
TL;DR: If I've viewed some episodes from season 1 and some from season 7, let me choose my "next episode" to default to the earliest unwatched episode (season 1) rather than the current default of the latest (season 7).
Shows without a plot (i.e. documentaries, sketch shows, etc.) are quite often watched out of order. For example, here's my viewing of ESPN's 30 for 30 series.

As you can see episode 3x03 is "up next" but I still have quite a few episodes before it in season 1 and 2 to watch. The true "next" episode for me to…

Comments and Moderation
I've written a rather short summary of my thoughts about the comments in v2 of trakt here: https://support.trakt.tv/forums/188762-general/suggestions/7325147-a-little-feedback-about-comments
Now, this was closed at the end of April with the comment saying the not finished, other things you'd "cover" in other tasks. So, 8 months later and nothing more happened.
There's an even older suggestion about "community moderators" here: https://support.trakt.tv/forums/188762-general/suggestions/6955017-idea-community-moderators
That one is from January with a "Long Term" label.
While I do not agree with the suggested application requirements, I still do think trakt definitely needs moderators for comments.
And with moderators a way to message people directly. That would…42 votesDefinitely on the todo list still. We are working on comment related starting in february.

UK Airdates
Can you in addition to selecting your timezone actually set what country you watch in and then pull the appropriate air dates of episodes in from tv rage/thetvdb.
E.g. I live in the UK so 2 broke girls is 8 episodes behind but i'd like to be able to track it consistently with the UK so i'm not seeing episodes that need watching that haven't even aired yet (at least not locally).
An option to toggle this on or off for different shows (as some won't have relevant air dates - because tvrage/thetvdb hash't been updated or because it doesn't…

Episodes in grid format on Progress page
Hello,
There are only 6 "Up-To-Next" episodes on home page and personal progress page only shows episodes on right side as list.
It would be really great see them like the watchlist so it will be easy to decide watch shows to watch.

Writer, director, and guest stars for TV episodes
I was wondering if it's possible to get the Writer/Director information from TV-episodes over to trakt. Right now those are missing on the people page. Maybe connecting the show and an episode count would be enough?
TV-directors just get left off the site. But many well known film directors like Spielberg, Scorsese, Tarantino, Cameron, Hitchcock, J.J. Abrams and Lynch have had their hand in TV aswell (without credit on the site). Anthology series are another thing where this would be great.

Categories for lists
Right now when you're looking for community lists you have to options to choose: Popular and Favorites. Since favorites are mostly good lists (of public interest), many of the other user lists are hardly worth anyone's time or a not supposed to be for the community but for their friends. Example for this: http://i.imgur.com/fZ0IF.png.
To ease to process of finding some lists or what you're actually looking for categories would be a big improvement. These could then be chosen when creating a list.Proposed example categories:
- "Critics" or "Reviewers" / Lists by critics, review websites etc
- "Best…34 votes -

Import watched status from Netflix csv
Hi, from my account in Netflix I can download a csv of everything I've ever watched and the date I watched it. It would be tremendous if I could import all that into Trakt. Even better if I import is more than once, it shouldn't duplicate - such that I can do it periodically.
32 votesLooking into this, but Netflix provides very little data and the matching wouldn’t be the accurate.

International Movie Release Dates
Though "My Movies" calendar is a great feature I can't make full use of it because not every film is released in the US and internationally on the same day. Now comes the hard part, because I don't know if you can do this, but it would be great and very useful if we could choose which country's release date we want to appear on the calendar, that way we would always know when we can actually go see the movie (anywhere and everywhere).

«On This Day»-tab
I love Trakt and would sign up for a VIP membership within seconds if an «On This Day»-tab was added.
In «On This Day» you could 1) see what you watched on this day the previous years and 2) show which movies premiered and episodes broadcasted on this day (not ALL movies and episodes, but the ones that is in your collection or viewing history).
I hope I explained this well enough to understand. Keep up the great work!

Import checked list from icheckmovies
As a new user who has found in love with this website (you guys rock!) one thing I would love to do would be to merge my checked movies into trakt.
I cant possibly force myself to go after over 1500 movies, so an import option would be ginormous good news for a user like me. Icheckmovies and maybe other sites provide export lists, so in theory it isnt to tricky.

Web App / Offline Support
Today browsers are getting more and more features to really feel like normal apps.
One of the really exciting new features are Service Workers. They basically allow the caching of content locally which means that the website can even be opened without an internet connection (and loading the website in general would be faster and save bandwidth).
Along with some other features (like Push Notifications) the trakt.tv website could feel like a normal application.I guess it would be good to go in this direction because it's easier to enhance the website instead of writing 2 completely new native Android…
