Hi @darekkay, looks like Trakt is now blocking this at least for me, don't know if it's affecting others? Got back (trimmed):

   <h2 class="cf-subheadline"><span data-translate="unable_to_access">You are unable to access</span> trakt.tv</h2>

        <h2 data-translate="blocked_why_headline">Why have I been blocked?</h2>

Trakt has definitely changed something. Can't log in anymore with my own passwd. I'm now receiving a code from them in order to log on. I guess with cyber WWIII going on it's only logical for them to do so.

Just looked on Trakt and they now have the option to download your own data (JSON) "https://trakt.tv/settings/data" which makes this script obsolete. Thx Darekay for this wonderful script.

@pinhead216 Thanks for posting the link to the data export page. This makes my script pretty much obsolete (except for automated backups - which I do not require personally). I removed the live script from my website.

It's been so helpful, thanks for all your work on it mate!

I use automated backups every Sunday at midnight (with monitoring in case anything goes wrong), I was originally using https://darekkay.com/service/trakt/trakt.php?username= but since that's been discontinued, I'll be using a copy of this script.

Thanks for sharing this!
