Haven't sailed in a while, DM me tips on how to get my vessel sea-worthy again! ๐ดโโ ๏ธ๐ฆ
stremio + real-debrid + orion
Basically, orion finds the torrents, a debrid service cache's torrents and streams them to you, stremio renders the stream.
No need for a VPN, no need to seed, no need for the *arr family, nice UI with high wife-approval-factor to browse content.
What benefits does Orion have over torrentio for Real Debrid?
Tried the trial and it found higher quality releases more often. I just don't understand how it works with the credit system.
probably none! I'm new to stremio and orion was the only way I could find to link stremio to real debrid. Thanks for mentioning this one I'll look into it!
orion is non-free btw. I assume torrentio is also paid ?
edit: just installed, I see it's free. Looks great. I may have been turned off previously by the utorrent logo ๐
I've not done this, and I prefer anyone see as opposed to DMs, but there's a suite of open source apps https://medium.com/linux-shots/self-host-media-stack-jellyfin-radarr-sonarr-jackett-transmission-3e6a0adf716e
Get Kodi, and look up instructions to get 'the crew' Plug in added to it, and then grab a month subscription to real-debrid and check it out. Bit of an effort to get set up, but once it is, it works arguably better than streaming. 4k, better bit rate, sports and all the TV shows and Movies, language and sub options, the lot.
I have it all set up on my TV box, and while browsing can be a bit wonkier, my watching experience is unmatched.
Watching content without paying is one thing. Actually paying the wrong person is actually quite malicious. You deserve to have all your favourite shows cancelled.
