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.


I appreciate the advice.
Long ago, I explored self-hosting arr-stack and Usenet. For me, it was a lot of work with many moving parts. It was great for obscure content, but being able to just stream content via stremio was a fantastic improvement.
If I’m looking at streaming, premiumize I feel could be overkill (comparing the price to other debris providers).
