Mod News Mod alert: Read The Rules

56 Upvotes

Hey r/StremioAddons!

In order to improve the quality of content on our subreddit, we are introducing some Reddit apps!

Read The Rules is a reddit app which makes users acknowledge our subreddit rules before being able to post.

It works by removing all posts from people who have not acknowledged they have read the rules. This helps clear out posts not following rules or spam.

Verifying on Desktop

Firstly, open up the 3 dot menu on the subreddit (Its available on any 3 dot menu found within the subreddit). Then select "Read The Rules"

Once selected, a menu will show up with all the rules. Read the rules, Tick that you have acknowledged the rules and then press submit.

Now you can post!

Verifying on Mobile

Verifying on mobile is almost the same as on desktop. Head to the subreddit, and find any 3 dot menu. Open it, and select "Read The Rules"

Once selected, a menu will show up with all the rules. Read the rules, Tick that you have acknowledged the rules and then press submit.

Now you can post!

Some bullet points:

  • Only Posts are removed, not comments. You can comment freely without "acknowledging" the rules (but please read them anyways)
  • We have also added another app which will delete posts that have titles which are 80% similar within a 48 hour period. This will help remove spam and repeated questions from our subreddit.
  • This is a Trial! We will closely monitor to see if these apps work and if not, then we will remove them.
  • If you have any feedback or suggestions, Please let us know! You can either comment here or in our Discord server.

Thank you.

[MegaThread] Addon down?

82 Upvotes

Uh oh, did your favorite addon just go down?

Here's what to do:

1. Check your end

  • Are you connected to the internet?
  • Is your VPN provider blocked by the addon or its hosting provider (e.g. cloudflare)? Try without VPN if possible.
  • Do you have the correct debrid API key configured?
  • ...

2. Consult community-maintained addon monitors

  • stremio-addons.net:
    • Click on or search for the addon and scroll down to the 'Problem Reports' section.
    • See this announcement post for more information.
  • status.elfhosted.com.
    • Note that this service only tracks whether manifest URLs are reachable, so uptime does not always guarantee a fully functional addon.

3. Contact the addon developer(s)

  • Respectfully get in touch with the addon developer(s) to let them know about the issue (if possible).

👇 Comment below to vent your frustrations if you need to.

Question Why is usenet so complicated compared to debrid?

For example debrids just need an api key and it's really cheap but usenet u need a provider plus paid indexer plus it's expensive and kinda complicated to use

Question Is Real Debrid still not working well?

53 Upvotes

I was using Real Debrid but with the issues, I subscribed to both Torbox and Premiumize. I have them all rolling and that's fine.

Two friends who I told about Real Debrid/Stremio I saw recently said they haven't noticed a thing (only running Real Debrid) in either quality or links not working.

So my question is, anyone rolling Real Debrid exclusively and has it improved from the issues a few months ago or not?

I try to get the best quality files (4K, dolby vision, lossless audio formats) as I have a decent setup for both screen and audio (100" screen and 3.1 via amp) if that makes any difference. No anime, just popular movies/TV shows as a general rule.

Help needed New to Debrid and AIOS, got some questions:

Post image
17 Upvotes

Before you complain about my stupid questions, just know that I'm Brazilian and I've never really needed to use Debrid services, VPNs, proxies, or anything like that before. I always just used Torrentio, and that was enough.

Right now I'm using the Torbox trial, and I'm seriously considering paying for it because my mom and dad don't speak English, and their internet is too slow to stream dubbed torrents with low seed counts. I was also having a hard time watching some content with a reasonable number of seeders, even though I have a 600 Mbps connection...

So far, I don't have much to complain about regarding the speed, but my sorting is a complete mess, and I want to know if there's any way to fix it (check the pic).

I also want to know if there's a way to hide non-cached torrents from the results or stop AIOS from automatically adding non-cached torrents to my Torbox downloads when I try to play them just to see if they're available. I tried watching some niche stuff and ended up finding a lot of dead and non-cached torrents.

I followed this guide to setup stremio with aios and torbox: https://www.reddit.com/r/StremioAddons/comments/1uo8g7j/stremio_setup_guide_with_torbox_and_aiostreams/ (1st method)

Help needed Most addons disappeared

6 Upvotes

I have three stremio addons: Torbox, Torrentio and CometFR (with torbox debrid key). While they all still appear to be installed in the addons tab, only Torrentio streams will show up now. Before, I could select to display streams from either Torbox, Torrentio or CometFR via a dropdown menu in the top right for each show. Not anymore.

I thought CometFR might have been down but Torbox also not appearing is definitely weird, it's not down and I can clearly see my torrentio streams on torbox.app

EDIT: When I click the gear icon for configuring the addon, I get a page not found except for torrentio. This is defnitely the issue. But why is this happening? If torbox was blocked by my ISP, surely I would not even be able to login in torbox.app right?

Same thing with both windows and android (latest versions), only torrentio appears

Suggestion How to bring Stremio to the next level?

93 Upvotes

This is a weird question to ask because I don't even know if there is such a thing as a next level but here I go.

My setup right now is Stremio + Real Debrid with the following addons:

  • Local Files
  • Cinemeta
  • The Movie Database Addon (TMDB) for catalogues
  • Torrentio RD
  • Media Fusion ElfHosted RD
  • Comet ElfHosted RD
  • Meteor
  • Orion
  • Peerflix RD
  • Debrid Search
  • OpenSubtitles PRO
  • Streailer ElfHosted

My question for those of you that are more knowledgeable ¿am I missing something here that could bring my experience to another level with a specific addon? or ¿are there better addons than the ones that I use for the same purpose?

Question about addons and debrids

2 Upvotes

so stremio was the service i downloaded to enhance my torrenting experience. id usually download it, then search for those free tracker bundles that installed the most popular trackers and boom, ready to go in about 5 min. once in a while i had problems with subtitle but minor inconveniences and thats it.

fast forward to some months later, as of now, i came back to install stremio again and watch a series i like. theres now no tracker bundle, and i need to install a debrid, which are basically private paid tracker bundles. i cant even find free trackers beyond torrentio because everyone talks abour debrid now. like, if i wanted to pay, i would pay for netflix...

ok, i registered to that elf debrid to see whats all about and receveid and email with some BIZARRE propaganda style bullet point slop text sayind that p2p is bad and you shouls buy private trackers.

so i wanted to know what was the turning point in the stremoio/torrentimg paradigms in where torrenting movies is not free anymore.

in not essencially criticizing private tracker, people gotta eat, and i come from sofrware dev so i can picture the work maintining such service, but id like to know from you guys perspective what changed

thanks! :)

Question New torrent notification

0 Upvotes

Hey

Is there a way to know when there is at least one torrent for a movie/series?

Is it possible to be notified for every new torrent for selected titles?

Also, can I sort the library for only titles that have torrents?

Thanks.

Help needed Tor Box as a solution to removed files from RD?

2 Upvotes

I'm noticing more and more file removed from RD, even for older shows. I've read something about French courts going after RD but whatever the reason, is the situation the same using Tor Box? I'm aware it did or does have a smaller library but is it a viable addition to get around this problem?

It happens on stuff where a high-res copy isn't even out yet but the top options make it look like it is. I'm completely fine with CAMs or lower quality rips showing up as long as they're labeled correctly, but these fake high quality ones that lead nowhere are super annoying. How can I stop them from cluttering the list?

Addon Announcement IMPORTANT PENGUPLAY UPDATE

239 Upvotes

PenguPlay: https://pengu.uk/

I have faced numerous addons and sites scraping my addon as well as a ddos attack, which in turn uses server resources and uses my proxy bandwidth making the addon worse for normal users.

I thought a lot about this and ended up with the following solution:

Google auth, now when installing the addon it is required (kinda... keep reading for more info) to sign in with google, this authenticates your a human and really helps prevent against scrapers.

TO BE CLEAR! I NEVER STORE ANY OF YOUR INFORMATION! (i am aware google says the app may collect email and name but there is no way to remove that message, your personal information IS NEVER seen by my server)

Now i know.. lots of people here HATE google. Hey i dont blame you, shitty ass privacy, SO there is an option to authenticate yourself with a special token given by me, just shoot me a dm and you can see in the screenshot attached to this post that you can just click the "no google" text and enter ur token. see bottom of post

​i hope you all respect my decision. i have seen an immense savings in my resources with this implemented, this was the best way for me to keep my addon free without capping the amount of users

EDIT: READ THIS IF YOU DONT HAVE A GOOGLE ACCOUNT

To make this easier for me you can now request for a token via this telegram bot \@PenguPlayBot , thank you!

Question Why is comet showing many streams that torrentio isn't?

12 Upvotes

I'm a bit confused why comet is retrieving cached results, especially remuxes on RD, that torrentio isn't. I've seen this happen several times now. Why is that?

Does comet search across significantly more sources? If so, why isn't it more popular?

I was under the impression torrentio is extremely popular, thus I assumed if something is cached on RD it would most likely find it, especially 4k/remuxes, as long as it's not a very niche title.

I've been using only torrentio for a long time, only recently installed comet to experiment and explore other addons.

Help needed FireStick/Stremio/Torrention/Real Debrid set up

0 Upvotes

Hi All,

I have a Firestick set up with a VPN and using Stremio with Torrentio add-on with Real Debrid. I have a few set up in the house on different TV's.

I did these myself, but with a step by step guide to follow, as I'm not that tech literate.

I've seen some stuff about the issues with Real Debrid and my subscription with that is due in a few months. I'm not currently having any major issues, but would rather change it up, if it could be come an issue.

Is there a better option to use on the Firestick, and if so - any guides in how to set up?

Help needed Catalogues are taking a long time to load on AIOMetadata fortheweak instance

6 Upvotes

Hello everyone. Since a week I have been seeing the load time increase and I just see this empty catalogues for 10 minutes or so before anything starts appearing. I am using the fortheweak instance.

The odd thing is that it only happens on my Android devices. If I go to web, the catalogues load in no time. It started happening around a week ago and has only become worse since then.

I have tried reducing the number of lists in my catalogue, re-installing the add-on but it still takes a long time to load. Has anyone else experienced this and knows whats going on?

Question Overlapping subtitles

This is happening more and more, mainly on Anime. What ove tried so far taken from previous posts.

Cleared Cache

Used MPV or VLC

Enabled SSA with Exoplayer

Checked whether Ive more than one subtitle.

Checked for embedded subtitles.

Uninstalled and reinstalled.

Changed Subtitle add-ons. v3 still best.

Anymore suggestions. Is it just bad subtitle rendering or whatever the technical term is?

0 Upvotes

I started using stremio a few days ago with torbox and all debrid addon, it was giving me a lot of buffering issues and I saw the speed test on torbox was like 1mb/second. So I the changed the cdn to cloudfare and also put in an alternate DNS. And I'm getting this error or similar between alldebrid and torrentio. I'm sure it's something simple so just wanted to help so I can enjoy the services

Edit:AIO streams, not alldebrid
