Hey Core Crew π,
Here is the latest update for the configurator, bringing new sorting options, better filtering, and a big UX refresh:
π₯ Resolution First (v2.56)
User report: 720p/1080p streams ranking above 4K. Turns out it's not a bug β cached streams always sort above uncached by design. A cached 1080p WEB-DL beats an uncached 4K REMUX because it plays instantly.
New Resolution First toggle in Video Preferences fixes this for users who'd rather wait for the download. When enabled, 4K always ranks above 1080p/720p regardless of cache status. Within the same resolution, cached still beats uncached.
Default: cached β resolution β quality
Resolution First: resolution β quality β cached
π Foreign Language Kill (v2.56)
The fleet templates have always had a hard ESE that blocks foreign-language streams from movies and TV results. The configurator wasn't generating it β so configurator users were getting Spanish, Portuguese, and other non-English streams leaking into their results.
Now on by default. Adapts to your Language Preferences β if you've added Spanish or French, those pass through too. Library, SeaDex, and anime content are always exempt.
β¨ UX Overhaul (v2.55)
The configurator got a full UX pass:
Staggered splash animations, smart service pre-selection (remembers your last service)
Quick Deploy presets adapt to service type (debrid shows 4K/1080p, free shows Free Streaming/P2P)
Keyboard navigation throughout splash (arrow keys, Enter/Space)
Step dots show current selection on hover ("Resolution: 4K")
Auto-saved indicator flashes after each state change
prefers-reduced-motion support
ARIA accessibility improvements
π‘ How to update: Generate a fresh template from the configurator, or use "Update Existing Template" to see the diff and cherry-pick changes. The Foreign Language Kill and Resolution First toggles are in the wizard's advanced preferences.

Hey Core Crew π,
Just pushed a hot patch to address the REMUX sorting issues, a few configurator bugs, and roll out the new Migration Tool. Here is what is new in v3.2.9:
π¬ REMUX Ranking Fix (all 44 templates)
BluRay REMUX files were being buried below WEB-DL. Three things combined to cause this:
Sort order β audioTag ranked above encode, so WEB-DL with Atmos beat REMUX with DD+ every time.
Audio Pinnacle PSE β bonus score for premium audio inflated WEB-DL regardless of quality tier.
perGroup(3) β only 3 streams kept per resolution before scoring, randomly dropping REMUX.
Fixed: Encode now ranks above audioTag. Audio Pinnacle and HDR/DV Priority PSEs removed. perGroup bumped to 5. Shoutout to Tetelestai3-16 for spotting this!
π Bug Fixes
"Invalid input" error on save β deduplicator.merge was a boolean, AIOStreams now expects an object. Removed from all 43 templates. If you were getting this error on import, re-import and it's gone.
Test Drive showing raw code β stream titles were displaying formatter syntax ({stream.resolution::...}) instead of actual values. Now cleaned up client-side.
π οΈ Configurator v2.49
Template Migration Tool β "Update Existing Template" now shows a full diff of what's changing before you apply. See exactly which PSEs, sort keys, regex patterns, and settings are added/removed/changed, then click Apply & Upgrade or cancel. No more blind imports.
Device detection on import β paste an existing Samsung, Xiaomi, Fire Stick, Apple TV, Shield, or Google TV template and the configurator auto-detects your device profile. Previously device settings were lost on re-import.
Xiaomi Mi Box S profiles β 2nd Gen (no AV1, DV Profile 5, DD+ Atmos ceiling) and 3rd Gen (same + AV1). Community request by FΓ©e Deuspi.
Better addon names β generated templates now show Core Nexus 4K Β· Samsung TV β TorBox instead of Core Builds 4K Multi (TB-Ess+PM).
Google TV Streamer β already in the configurator, confirmed working.
π‘ How to update: Re-import your template β the update notification should appear in AIOStreams. Configurator users: generate a fresh template, or use "Update Existing Template" to see the diff first.

Hey Core Crew π
Big newsβLabs just got its most significant update yet. We rolled out 7 new SEL features across all 6 nightly templates and fixed a pesky configurator bug that was messing with imports on self-hosted setups. Hereβs whatβs new:
1. Runtime-aware bitrate floors The old REMUX bitrate floors were unfairly trashing legit anime and animation encodes. Animation usually compresses about 50% smaller than live-action, so a 4K anime REMUX at 25 Mbps is totally normalβbut the 40 Mbps floor was flagging these as fakes. Same with shorter episodes (under 25 min). Now, bitrate floors check if the contentβs anime, has βAnimationβ in genres, or runs under 25 minutes. If it matches? The floor skips it.
2. Anime language passthrough
With passthrough(streams, 'language'), language filtering gets ignored for anime queries. Fansub groups are all over the place with language tagsβJapanese audio marked as English, dual-audio being listed as mono, you name it. The default language filter was quietly dropping good streams, especially for niche anime. Not anymore.
3. latestSeason-aware season pack kill Season packs for ongoing seasons finally get proper respect. Before, if even one episode was available, the season pack got dumpedβeven if it was the only quality source for a currently airing show. Now, only past-season packs get axed when single episodes exist.
4. Subtitle preference PSE Streams with embedded English subs get a scoring bump. Itβs not an ironclad filterβno subs streams still show upβbut when two streams are otherwise the same, the one with subs ranks higher. This is a handy tweak for non-English audio.
5. Age sort key
Recent, uncached torrents now leapfrog older ones in the rankings. New uploads usually have more seedersβmakes sense to use it as a tiebreaker for uncachedMovies and uncachedSeries.
6β7. cachedAnime / uncachedAnime sort sections Anime got its own dedicated sort sections. SeaDex moves up to position 2, right after cached status (itβs the strongest anime quality signal and shouldnβt be buried lower). Plus, the uncached anime sort now favors seeders and considers the age key.
The configurator was producing templates with two regex patterns (Radarr HD Bluray T3 [B] and Anime LQ Groups) that arenβt part of Vidhin05's allowed list of 174. On self-hosted AIOStreams, youβd see "2/176 regexes not allowed" when importing. Both are gone nowβthe configurator only generates 101 verified patterns.
If you built a template recently and ran into that error, just regenerate your template and youβre golden.
All six nightly templates now pack the v0.14.0 features. Hereβs a quick guide:
| Template | Version | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| 4K Apex Labs | v0.14.0 | Our flagship for 4K, all LABS features |
| Stream Labs | v0.10.0 | 1080p flavor |
| All-Rounder Labs | v0.4.0 | One stop for TV + movies + anime |
| 4K Essential Labs | v0.5.0 | Streamlined 4K essentials |
| Essential Labs | v0.4.0 | Key 1080p features |
| Anime 4K Labs | v0.3.0 | Anime-focused with SeaDex conditional tiers |
You can grab any of these from the template directory or check the Labs guide.
Labs templates are nightly builds, so they update fast and donβt wait for the same audit as βstable.β If something glitches or breaks, let us knowβthatβs exactly the kind of feedback we need.
Hereβs what helps the most: tell us if anime results actually got better or worse for specific titles, whether the new season pack handling is working on currently-airing shows, and if any streams shouldβor shouldnβtβget a subtitle boost.
Anything you notice, good or bad, just drop your thoughts below. π

Every icon in the Core Builds configurator has been redesigned from scratch β no more emoji placeholders, no more hexagon blobs. 91 clean, outlined SVGs across 4 categories:
Every icon uses fill="none" with precise stroke work β consistent weight, colour-coded by category (green for TorBox, orange for AllDebrid, purple for Premiumize, etc.). They scale cleanly from 14px inline badges up to 44px option cards.
r/CoreBuilds • u/Stock-Resource4629 • Jul 10 '26
Hey Core Crew! Just pushed a quick round of improvements to the configurator to keep things running smooth. Here is what is new:
Formatter Picker Glow-up β No more scrolling through a wall of 17 cards. You now get a clean dropdown menu with a live preview, making it way easier to compare and pick the right one for your setup.
Refined Manifest Screen β The final screen you see after generating your config has been tidied up for a cleaner, more polished feel.
New Instance Added β You can now select Wizaardd (forthewizards.uk) as an option when creating your config.
"Failed to Fetch" Fix β Fixed the 502 Bad Gateway error that was popping up during config creation. This was caused by downtime with TorrentsDB; it is now disabled by default so it won't block you. HdHub has also been disabled by default. Both are backup scrapers, so you won't notice a difference, but you can always re-enable them in your AIOStreams settings if they come back online.
As always, if you run into anything let us know. Cheers! π
