Long time Kodi and Plex user, it was a matter of time that I started messing around with this.

What is the provider source you used?

I think many are very well served with Sorastreams.

Also I think the UI is very Netflix-like, so not confusing at all for most people, but yeah I feel more comfortable navigating with Stremio.

About Chromecast I do agree, I started using Android apps to have a good Kodi replacement "on the go" I ended up setting up Stremio (which worked better than CS when casting), and even became my main when I realized it had ATV versions as well plus settings synced in all my devices lol.

I don't really remember which sources I used, I think Sorastreams was one, but even then it was a shot in the dark. Sometimes I'd get decent quality, sometimes I'd get really bad quality... Stremio is just more consistent and I have more control overall.

[–] kratoz29@lemm.ee 2 points 8 months ago

Yeah I agree with the last part.

I think CS really shines with anime streams (and it was way better when Crunchyroll streams worked) but Stremio with Torrentio and Kitsu don't fall too far.

SoraStream, SoraStream-Lite, and StremioX never work for me. I always get an error when I select something. Any ideas why or advice on how to address it?

SoraStream

Huh, other than having the latest source of the addon, I don't think you need to do anything, AFAIK SoraStream fetches content from many websites, so you'll likely have issues if you are watching "unpopular" or "obscure" stuff, and even then I think it should be able to have some sources for it.

For example, I was looking at what website it had Shaman King Flowers with Spanish subs, and I couldn't find any with a good quality, SoraStream provided me one, with deficient subs though.

Hmmm ok I wonder if I'm having app issues. I'm on 4.0.0 which I installed from stormunblessed. Should I switch to the recloudstream version? I didn't realize there was more than one

[–] kratoz29@lemm.ee 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, switch to that version, and use the beta version as well, stable is very outdated.
