Switch from Trakt

I am tempted to make the switch from Trakt to Simkl as many others have. I don't have Trakt connected to any of my apps, I manually mark episodes and movies as watched via the Trakt mobile app.

Two questions;

  1. I set up my Simkl account a while ago and my watch history is off. Is it possible to start fresh and re-pull my latest status from Trakt?

  2. What is the easiest way to mark episodes as watched? It doesn't seem obvious from the dashboard, maybe I'm missing something?

  3. Anyone regret moving from Trakt? I'll likely pay for Simkl to support the devs like I did for Trakt before they doubled the price overnight.

Anyone use an intercom/bluetooth with Trident 800?

I use a Cardo Packtalk Edge and often talk to my friends when riding via Discord as they have different brands of headsets.

Cardo is paired to my phone and the bike is paired to my phone, the intercom menu on the bike doesn't seem to do anything, media controls are iffy, "hey google" never works when the bike is running and from time to time my audio stops working because the bike has taken control.

Is there a certain way this should be set up? Should I be pairing my headset and phone to the bike rather than headset to my phone? Will that still allow Discord to work.

New user - Must have mods and config?

Hello,

I've been playing MFS since FS98 and have experienced so many bugs and issues with MFS2020 that I fancied a change, I've purchased X-Plane 12.

In real life I'm a few hours into my PPL training in a PA38 Tomahawk. My system is a Lenovo Legion Laptop with Ryzen AI 7 350, 32GB DDR5-5600 and RTX 5070 8GB. My monitor is an LG 38" UltraWide with 3840x1600 Resolution.

My experience so far has been a little hit and miss, I installed X-Plane Map Enhancement using the free version and it's slightly better but I think overall the experience can be better with addons. The views are taking time to get used to also, each time I change it resets my zoom/position which is frustrating but again I'm clearly doing somethng wrong.

What addons or settings would you recommend I try? I'd seen on YouTube someone changed a setting on X-Plane and enabled Frame Smoothing on the nVidia App.

Thanks in advance for any input. Lots of information out there, but appreciate thoughts from those that are better for my setup.

Can't get simulator to load?

I purchased years ago from the MS Store and have 8 days playtime. Recently got a new laptop and can't get the simulator to load. It sits on this screen for 15 min + before I quit, 8% CPU usage and no Disk or Network usage.

Clean install if Windows - It did install and get to the main menu which I closed, but since then can't get back in.

I've ensured my video card drivers are updated, Windows is updated and I've tried the Verify/Repair files option in the Xbox app with no difference.

Any ideas what this could be, or how to fix?

Looking for a local dog trainer, recommendations?

Looking for some help to get our dog walking better, he's awful for pulling on the lead. I've tried a variety of techniques found online and struggling - I'm now willing to pay for some help.

Has anyone used a local trainer they'd recommend?

Did you get a manual?

Did anyone get a manual with the bike? I got a folder with a bunch of stuff in it but no manual, only a quick start guide that tells you how to start the bike and use keyless ignition (which wasn't an option?).

I'm wondering how you turn off the cruise control, seems that after using it the amber light remains on the instrument cluster. Can it be disabled while riding? My prior bikes had a cruise on/off button.

I've just fitted the Elitewheels ENT2.0 to my Gravel Bike. This is the first time I've had a set of carbon wheels.

I usually store my bike hung on my garage wall as shown, a friend questioned if I should be doing that with Carbon wheels. I assumed they are just as strong as my prior aluminium wheels but now I'm not sure.

Any issues if I continue storing my bike like this?
