There is no denying there are plenty of other methods that work better for others. However if you want:

  • Cheap
  • Quick & Easy Setup
  • Run on any device (Exception for iOS but you can get around this with Stremio Web + VLC)
  • Whole Movie + TV Shows catalog to browse. Seeing trending items is handy.

Only issue I have had is niche Movies or TV Shows just do not have a Real-Debrid entry to stream so I’ll have to manually search, but this is rare.

    Can you configure streamio as a source for Kodi Player? Can you configure it with subtitles from OpenSubtitles?

    Edit: I just did a bunch of research and it looks like Real Debrid is the actual source I’d set up in Kodi player. Streamio is just a player and streamer.

    I downloaded Streamio to my Chromecast and tried to use it, but it’s forcing a login. During the account creation process I decided to actually read the privacy policy, considering what the use for the player will be. They collect information about your use, they log your IP address, the times and dates when you use the player, they set cookies, and most importantly, they share analytics data with the following services:

    • Google Analytics
    • BigQuery
    • Sentry
    • YouTube

    They say that they don’t keep logs of your streaming sources, or watch history, but like any other privacy policy, they could change that whenever they want. Everything I read just now indicates that Streamio makes a better player than Kodi, but given the above considerations I think I’ll stick with Kodi.

    Thanks for the post though! You got me to do a bunch of research and turned me onto Real Debrid. I’ve seen a lot of posts about these services, but this is the first one that prompted me to learn more and now I understand how it all works. Cheers.
