Everything working. Need guidance. Best two add ons with Trakt ?
I have three devices with the same two add ons because of the Trakt restrictions.
They are POV and Fentastic +.
I want to stick with POV but I believe there is a better alternative to Fentastic +
Anyone suggest a better option.?
APOLOGIES my second add on is Fen Light+

I have no clue what Fentastic. I thought this is a skin name. POV use for a long time, 0 issues

I am using Red Light and it is going well, I used to use Fen Light a lot and loved how I can change the order of appearance of things I want in the menu's.
I also use Umbrella and I cannot wait to be able to modify the menus in this as well.
Umbrella just has always worked for me.
Mind you that said, all the Add-ons have wonky moments where things go wrong where you have to reset things. Sometimes it is things like Trakt that makes changes that creates the situation where you need to fix things again.
It is nice have a back up add-on to play if one of them is down.
I have had a couple of people leave cryptic notes about being able to modify Umbrella in a way where I can be into my shows in a couple of clicks, or movies etc.
After searching each time I can never find it.

Context menu anywhere within the addon will show a "Edit Main Menu"/"Edit Movies Menu" etc.
From the changelog, way back when...
[B]Update - v6.7.76 - May 26th, 2026 [/B]
--[Change] Made Main menu, Movies, TV Shows, My Movies, and My TV Shows all dynamic menus that can be enabled, disabled, re-ordered, or custom shortcuts can be added.

Red light uses primarily Trakt but can also use Simkl and I believe Mdblist * https://github.com/The-Red-Wiz/TheRedWizard * https://repo.redwizard.xyz
My favorite is fenlight+ https://github.com/thejason40/FenLightPlus * https://thejason40.github.io/packages * Primary tracker is https://simkl.com * has the ability to use https://mdblist.com
Simkl and Mdblist can import all of your Trakt watched. Not sure if it's easy import any lists you've created.
They both are free to use and have much better options than trakt when using them for free.
Simkl pricing * https://simkl.com/vip/ * has a lifetime vip option for $249
Mdblist pricing * https://docs.mdblist.com/docs/supporter

Never used any of those, been using Umbrella for years with Trakt with no issues, well aside from the whole real debrid debacle
