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 guess you are not renting that setup from someone, right? (colo?) I am asking because I have been renting a dedicated server from Hetzner for a few years now (one AX line, other from auction - got a good disc space with it) and with the price hike it's getting a bit costly (and can't self-host).
No I built it. It's in my garage in a server rack. I lucky to have gigabit fibre internet.
