Found this on reddit and decided to share. Here's the text from the author:

Hey pirates, I made this fully open source movie/tv shows app.

It's available for Android, Windows and Linux.

Main goal of the app is to reduce the headaches of watching and searching for movies. I always hated checking if a movie is out for downloading, then check each torrent site to download it or check each streaming site to watch it. So I made this app to make this process more enjoyable.

The app is currently on version 1 with minimum features to get started.

Features right now:

New released torrent files for movies and tv shows.
Ability to search for a movie and watch it from different providers or look it up on different torrent sites.
Default movie app features like watchlist, favorites and ratings.

Plans for future:

Adding a torrent downloader and qbittorrent remote inside the app. i Adding a recommendation system based on requested details

I accept feature requests either here or on GitHub issues.

See screenshots for desktop version on GitHub.

What does this do that Jellyfin+Radarr+qbittorrent doesn't do?

[-] sudoroot@lemmy.zip 27 points 4 months ago

Yup, curious as well. Thought this may accompany the rest of the *arr stack, but nope. Just a way to manually download things or stream them?

[-] xnx@slrpnk.net 16 points 4 months ago

Its everything in one. Much simpler for the average person to use

[-] fushuan@lemm.ee 10 points 4 months ago

So, streamio + torrentio?

[-] xnx@slrpnk.net 8 points 4 months ago

Yes but in one app what are you not getting lol

[-] fushuan@lemm.ee 10 points 4 months ago

That torrentio is an add-on of streamio, it's 1 app too...

[-] Brickardo@feddit.nl 1 points 4 months ago

It seems you don't want to understand what the other guy is telling you.

[-] fushuan@lemm.ee 1 points 4 months ago

Just what the other guy told you. I get that it's a good idea, so good that it has already been done. Streamio+torrentio is the same concept and once set up (takes 5 minutes MAX), it works the same way. I still prefer a full servarr setup though.

(low key shame on this product for having the *arr suffix while being a replacement of the servarr stack)

Okay, let me break it down like this: Do you use a browser like Firefox or Chrome? Do you use an ad blocker on it, like uBlock? What if there was some all-new browser that was Firefox/Chrome but with ad-blocking in it? Would you immediately be hyped and jump ship, or just shrug your shoulders and think “why not just use an addon in the actual browser?”

[-] Brickardo@feddit.nl 3 points 4 months ago

I'd not be interested, but happy that there's competition on that front as well.

[-] princessnorah@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 4 months ago

This is literally what Vivaldi is and yeah, I'd rather use Firefox with uBO.

[-] jeanofthedead@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 months ago

Except no debrid service.

[-] AmbiguousProps@lemmy.today 24 points 4 months ago

Is this any better than radarr+overseerr?

[-] Atherel@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 4 months ago

Doesn't sound like it would be

[-] GammaGames@beehaw.org 19 points 4 months ago

How is this different from popcorn time and stremio?

[-] DoucheBagMcSwag@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 4 months ago

GitHub huh?

Place your bets on when the takedown request occurs.

[-] schizo@forum.uncomfortable.business 39 points 4 months ago

I mean all the usual arrs and overseerr and jellyseerr and such are already on github, so it's... probably fine?

[-] SeekPie@lemm.ee 11 points 4 months ago

Tried it. So it's basically a search engine for piracy sites? Like it opens a browser window of a piracy site of your choosing and you play it in the browser. I think torrentio + stremio is better experience, but for free, this ain't too bad.

[-] xnx@slrpnk.net 3 points 4 months ago

This is also free though?

[-] sudoroot@lemmy.zip 8 points 4 months ago

Interesting, will check it out after work

[-] Burghler@sh.itjust.works 0 points 4 months ago

Assuming GitHub doesn't say Hi

[-] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 8 points 4 months ago

Wow, this is perfect for the masses (that I don't want to admin/tech support for)!

People love installing apps. And even installing one for them is ez.

May the high seas of democratic culture be kind to you!

[-] jlow@beehaw.org 3 points 4 months ago

So it's basically Popcorn Time ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popcorn_Time )? Nice!

[-] Unabart@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 4 months ago

Anyone try this on Android TV-like box? Perhaps I will. Though will be kind of hard to usurp the Stremio/Debrid/Torrentio/Orion setup. Might be a nice Plan B for when Debrid lays an egg.
