What is the easy way to stream movies/series hosted on file hosting/sharing sites? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

For streaming not-so-easily accessible media that I find only on file hosting sites, which often limit the speed and number of downloads, I unlock links with Alldebrid and stream them in VLC player. This is impossible for members of my family to do, especially on a TV (fire stick). Is there a way I can acquire the links and make something like a playlist for them to access on TV and play just by clicking on the link? Torrentio does something like that for stremio but just for magnet links, I opened using Alldebrid.

Take a look at jellyfin

If OP’s already using jellyfin/plex, alldebrid provides a webDAV server which you can mount with rclone. You can then make symlinks from that mount to your media library.

Does this do anything else than being a Fileserver? I already have SFTP and smb to choose from.

Other than being able to transcode, not really. You could probably instead set up a proxy for AD’s sftp/webDAV so only one connection/ip is active at a time

Does it have this functionality with a plugin? :o

If you want Jellyfin to fetch media from a rapidgator or megaup URL, then nope, haven’t seen anything like that.

It’s a bit old but here’s a pretty thorough list of their plugins: https://www.reddit.com/r/jellyfin/comments/ozncze/list_of_all_known_jellyfin_plugin_repositories/

JF supports all the Arrs suite, so you may be able to do what you want (stream media) in other ways. For example, doing it all on JF yourself and then creating accounts for your family. You would be the admin setting up the content and they would just log in and consume it.
