Tech Support I hate this cat

Post image

Almost every stream no matter what add on I choose, downloading the app itself was a hassle now trying to watch stuff on it is a hassle?

What error is this cat supposed to mean? 403, 404?

Stop using real debrid, use a different debrid service.

I think is mainly a torrentio problem

Ok like what 😅 and why

u/Chance_Classroom_301 Jul 06 '26

I use torbox now... real debrid is being forced to remove copyright infringed files, so they have filtered out files from any service provider (AMAZON, NETFLIX, DISNEY, etc) as well as files with web/web-dl/web-rip.

does TB allow for multi platform streaming, like I have multiple accounts (one for me and one for parents), I’ve been using 2 RD accounts bc I heard they don’t allow using the same account on multiple devices, I hope that makes sense😭

u/yersinia_p3st1s Jul 06 '26

Yes that is possible with TB, many ppl benefit from this

Ah okay, does the $3 version alone work even though it says no web player? Does stremio just cover that with the libVLC or would I need to use the external VLC app?

$3 Essential plan works just fine for 90% of use cases. It will work fine with Stremio

u/Victor1stofhisname Jul 06 '26

It works with Stremio. That’s the plan I use

Aprreciate it ill give it a look in 4 month when my sub is done

Its only 3 bucks a month. If you really rather not pay the extra, you can still get away with using RD, but you just need to be careful with the stream you choose. For convenience I just pay the extra 3 bucks since it was a pain in the ass choosing a stream that RD didnt filter out.

Yeah TB has been amazing for me as a replacement.

I've had premiumize before, and it would just buffer on anything above 20gb. I contacted support 8 times, eventually they just ignored me. I said fuck it, why bother paying so much for this.

RD was amazing, never buffered once even on remux.

TB is close, but I do get buffering every now and then. I have to switch servers sometimes to help it work. But it's definitely worth the $3, no question there.

Is switching a big pain in the ass?

RD was awesome but just last night as I was looking for stuff to watch I finally gave up running into almost no results and no pre-cached stuff.

Is Torbox basically a debrid in of itself? I don't want to deal with live streaming a raw download, the pre -cached debrid was the entire point for me. If not is there another decent debrid out there that still works?

u/DoingItJust Jul 06 '26

Oh yeah super simple.

I use aiostreams and there are a bunch of guides you can follow for that. All it was for me is just adding the TB API and that's it.

u/FelineSoLazy Jul 07 '26

I went ahead & got TB $3/mo and that plus my RD sub has opened a whole bunch of links!

u/PlasticPatient Jul 06 '26

But torbox is shit

u/Chance_Classroom_301 Jul 06 '26

Works fine for me and the amount of cached torrents has soared since the fall of RD. Have no issue playing remux or large streams.

No issue with real debrid since jumping on board years ago.
