There is no denying there are plenty of other methods that work better for others. However if you want:

  • Cheap
  • Quick & Easy Setup
  • Run on any device (Exception for iOS but you can get around this with Stremio Web + VLC)
  • Whole Movie + TV Shows catalog to browse. Seeing trending items is handy.

Only issue I have had is niche Movies or TV Shows just do not have a Real-Debrid entry to stream so I’ll have to manually search, but this is rare.

    I have a pretty advanced setup. Big dual xeon server with 40TB of drives. Dockerized everything running radarr, medusa, deluge, jackett, vpn etc. I’m a pixel snob and love the 4k remuxes with lossless Dolby sound for my Atmos speaker setup.

    BUT I read about stremio toreentio and RD a few times here in this community and thought I’d install it on my NVIDIA shield.

    And we use it ALL THE TIME!

    It’s just so easy even for someone with my hugely automated setup.

    It’s perfect for anything you’re probably only going to watch once.

    The Sopranos, The Wire, Better call Saul… Yeah download it cause I rewatch it often.

    Fboy Island or whatever guilty pleasure reality tv garbage… Stremio it is.

    1917 or The Godfather. Download highest quality. Legally Blonde for movie night with my daughter … stremio.

    It’s a great little app and setup.

      I’m curious why someone who is able to afford 40TB of drive space is interested in piracy. Is it more about archiving and ownership than saving a buck?

    I have a seed box and big Nas at home. I’m interested in just streaming anime and tv content I hate downloading them.

    Is this what I need? How privacy focused is it? Where does content come from?

    TLDR?

      TL;DR:

      * Stremio is a digital media player that allows you to stream high-quality videos and add subtitles.
* Torrentio is an unofficial add-on for Stremio that allows you to stream movies and TV shows from torrent sites.
* Real Debrid is a debrid service that allows you to connect directly to a server instead of having your IP shared in peer-to-peer and to speed up performance.

      Privacy is good. You are just streaming the links through HTTPS link that Real Debrid offer you. You can use without a VPN but if you want to be cautious you can use one on top of it.

    So I have a question here. I live in USA. I have setup stremio with torrentio lite because I don’t have real debrid yet. I have provided the same stremio login to my parents who live in India because I’ve already set everything up. If I set up stremio with debrid, can I still share my login with my parents? I’m asking because I read something about real debrid banning your account if you use it from multiple ip addresses simultaneously.
