I had tried using stremio and real-debrid, but since real-debrid started to filter their results and some addons just don’t seem reliable any more (ie: torrentio), I think it’s time to update or replace my setup.
I would use it for just T.V. and movies, nothing really obscure (maybe older, but popular, shows/movies).
I had tried:
- real-debrid (not happy with)
- self-hosted comet (not happy with)
- zilean (not happy with)
- torrentio (I’ve actually removed it, because it seemed to be broken more often than not, but when it worked it had great results)
- steaming catalogs (love it)
- aiolist (atm seems to be broken or I need to upgrade it)
Other than streaming catalogs, I’m struggling to find an add-on which aggregates what’s popular/recent now (was using trakt via aiolist).
What would you suggest?
I have a vague recollection that there was a paid service like torrentio (debrid-link?). Would something like that salvage my real-debrid?
Would I get better results with zilean/comet, if I replaced real-debrid with another debrid service (ie: world-debrid, alldebrid, torbox, etc)?
Ideally, I’d like to keep the costs low, but I’m also getting tired of getting 480 resolution because that’s the only thing that comet/zilean can find that exists on real-debrid. Self-hosting could be possible (but I’d like to avoid).
edit: a couple of words.
Torbox can be use just like RD, it does advert as a seedbox but this functionality is junk, nowhere close to be as good as a (real) seedbox provider. Also, debriding from hosters isn’t very reliable. I mean, it does work usually but not as stable as other debrid services but essential plan is cheap and allow multi IP so you can share account.
Oh, wow. Thanks for bringing up the hosters lack of reliability.
Every once in awhile, I’ll use RD to fetch content on mega or 1fichier. It’s not a “must have” feature, but it is kinda handy.
Does torbox have support for mega and 1fichier? I couldn’t find a comprehensive list of their supported holsters.
I’d forgotten about RD limiting one account to a single IP. Since torbox would support mutli-ip, it would be nice to not worry about if I’d left the streaming on at home while on the road via mobile (or needing to VPN, etc).
It does support hosters you mentioned. I should have mentioned overall reliability is Ok but really not the best https://status.torbox.app/ I still have active suscription but did move away few months ago as i got fedup… To be honest, they do have some good things but feels like they still need a lot of work and they really had some nonsens approach like until early this year (if i’m not mistaken), they were running qbitorrent gui instance…
I’m curious, if you got fedup with torbox, what did you move too?
Alldebrid. Stability apart, my other concern with TB was cached files in my own language (that’s why i did not mentioned it) but TB is good for english content, probably best than alldebrid for that matter.
