WatchState is a self-hosted PHP service that synchronizes watch/play state between Plex, Jellyfin, and Emby media servers without third-party services. It supports multi-user identities, webhook ingestion, portable backups, and media metadata health auditing.
Use cases
- sync watch progress between plex and jellyfin
- keep emby and plex play state in sync
- backup my media server watch history
- sync watched status across multiple media servers without trakt
- receive webhooks from plex to update other backends
- find mismatched or misidentified media across backends
- multi-user watch state sync for family accounts
When to choose
- you run multiple media servers (Plex, Jellyfin, Emby) and want their play states consistent
- you want sync without relying on external services like Trakt
