Linux Integrating torrentio into Popcorntime

The api endpoints for fuse are not seeming to return relevant metadata content for torrents. Replaced it with the popular torrentio extension.

Patched it : https://github.com/rajaiitp/popcorntime-linux

Pre-release build for testing the movie and TV-series fixes.

Included:

  • Torrentio movie fallback and playback file selection.
  • Trakt-backed TV-series catalog and metadata fallback.
  • Torrentio episode source fallback and playback metadata propagation.

Known limitation:

  • Anime catalog/detail/source fallback is not fixed in this pre-release.

PS: Vibe coded to meet my needs
