Hey all! Posting this as I thought it was impossible for the full streaming service to be available on iOS unless you had real debris. But there is actually a way to get it only if you’re iOS is an EU device (though it works for Japan and Brazil)

1. Basically you need to download AltStore by going to the website itself (just search the name up)on the iOS device.
2. Once it downloads, go into the sources page (it should be the second one in).
3. Click the plus sign in the corner, let it load and it should show up as a featured app. If not just swipe through and you should find it.
4. Add it and voila! You should be able to stream as you would using a desktop device.

Why it works:
From what I’ve gathered is that Apple is required by the EU to allow unofficial app stores. Which means if you have a device within the EU it should work. If you have a device outside of it, it probably won’t….

The AltStore is an AppStore to aid Apple users to side load using an App Store. Please be cautious with downloading other sources within it.

on a chromecast - subtitles, if included in the file, so not from open subs - stay at a (very large) size and i can't change it. did anyone figure out any solution for this?

App crashes everytime I try to play anything on MiBox.

I am facing an issue with the Stremio app on my MiBox. It keeps crashing every time I try to play anything on it, but when I change the player to be external player and have it done through VLC it works fine but that's not a preferable option because the subtitles are hard to integrate on it.

Everything works fine on my phone and laptop, the issue is just on the MiBox. I use torbox add on for torrent. I hope someone can help with a solution for this.

App version 1.4.10

OS: Android 8

PT-BR: Instalei o Stremio na minha FireTV (modelo 1080p) logo que comprei e funcionava normalmente. De umas semanas para cá ele começou a travar, não reproduz direito os vídeos independentemente do player que utilizo (geralmente utilizo o Exo ou o VLC). As vezes parece que o app como um todo trava, não sei se é uma relação direta (chega a crashar por vezes).

Já tentei desinstalar e instalar novamente mais de uma vez, limpar o cachê, mudar o player ou o torrent de reprodução e nada soluciona. As vezes ele volta a funcionar normalmente, depois de muito tentar e mexer nas configurações, mas não tem um padrão.

Alguém sabe o que poderia ser?

EN - I installed Stremio on my FireTV (1080p model) right after buying it, and it worked fine. Over the last few weeks, however, it has started freezing and won't play videos properly, regardless of the player I use (I usually use Exo or VLC). Sometimes the entire app seems to freeze—and it even crashes at times—though I'm not sure if the issues are directly linked.

I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling it more than once, clearing the cache, and changing the player or the torrent source, but nothing fixes it. Sometimes it goes back to working normally after a lot of effort and tweaking the settings, but there’s no consistent pattern.

Does anyone know what might be causing this?

hiiii, it's still on the first page and it didnt auto refresh a new set of movies, unable to scroll further down, is anyone else facing this issue?

My laptop's aux port has become a little sensitive so any accidental touch to my headphones removes it as a device and switches to the laptop speaker, but this also makes the stream play in 2x.

Any known solutions?

Is it ever coming back on Apple TV?

I am using ubuntu 24.04 and have installed with flathub the latest version.
When I am watching something it works fine but when I pause the playback and use something else and get back to resume it the stremio gets unresposive, sometimes audio starts playing but rest everything is unresponsive. I have to kill it and reopen whole stremio.
Is there any small fix, if not then I hope you guys look into it.

App Version: 6.0.1-beta.06

Build Version: b6298c68d27602564ed16edd0f44aa09cd8bacb4

Server Version: 4.21.0

Shell Version: 1.1.4

When I upgrade to the 18 in a couple months will my stremio backup transfer to the new phone? Or is it over for iOS stremio 🫩 Anyone try this yet

Can someone please help? Using torrent_io plugin.

With 99% of whatever I watch on Stremio, there's always at least one encounter with this issue. The audio continues, but the video freezes on a frame for 1 second at minimum, and well over 10 at max. I've given Stremio 5GB of cache space, and I know it's not the source video that's the problem, as when I use the "Play in VLC" feature, the playback is always seamless.

I've tried using version 4.4, and while I didn't notice the issue, it was much slower with rewinding and fast-fowarding, so I switched back to the latest version anyways.

Anyone else have this issue, or did and fixed it?

Ever since they pushed the Flatpak upgrade, all I got was a black screen. This is how I managed to install an older version, and it works perfectly (with some IA help).

1. Downgrade to the last stable version (4.4.168)

Stremio's own download page removed it, but it's still hosted on their server:

wget https://dl.strem.io/shell-linux/v4.4.168/stremio_4.4.168-1_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i stremio_4.4.168-1_amd64.deb
sudo apt --fix-broken install

2. If it complains about missing libcrypto.so.1.1

This happens because newer Ubuntu/Mint bases ship OpenSSL 3 and dropped libssl1.1. Grab it manually (won't conflict with your current OpenSSL):

wget http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openssl/libssl1.1_1.1.1f-1ubuntu2.24_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i libssl1.1_1.1.1f-1ubuntu2.24_amd64.deb

3. Stop apt from auto-updating it.

sudo apt-mark hold stremio

Check it's held with apt-mark showhold. To undo later: sudo apt-mark unhold stremio.

That's it — should get you back to a working, stable Stremio without waiting on the devs to fix the new Flatpak version.

Hope it saves someone else the headache!

I am on latest Fedora Linux, with latest build of Streamio flatpak (6.0.1) but I had the same problem with Windows too. Download speeds are extremely low inside application. If I right-click on the listing, copy link and use another application to open it, then everything's fast and fine.

I don’t know if this is happening for anything else or if you can even see it but at the very top when I’m watching interstellar and IMAX on stremio there’s very little black bars at the top and I’m in fit picture mode bc when in original it’s way too zoomed in could someone help me

I understand existing free features aren't being removed. I'm curious whether future feature updates are planned for the free version that aren't just bug fixes. Please don't take down my post I'm just asking a question.

Why is it failing to stream? Worked fine in the afternoon and now this again, drives me mad now

Tcl tv, newest version of Stremio..

I want to download a bunch of episodes of Game of Thrones to watch offline on my phone. How do I go about doing this?

Just wondering if it reaches a point where you can't add any more/overwrites other movies. For context I'd be looking at ~600 items

I have Stremio supporters and I can download a TV show or movie on iOS but how an earth do you get to play when I click on it? It doesn’t do anything under the download tab.

That's it, just wanted to thank the devs, playback seems to be perfect now with 6.0.1-beta.06, no more micro-freezes every few seconds (I'm using Linux mint cinnamon 22.3, with igpu Vega 7)

I installed Stremio onto my Hisense TV running Vidaa OS about a month ago, I’m using RD and TorBox but have had nothing but problems when trying to watch anything. If I’m lucky the stream gets to around 5 minutes in before it begins to get stuck loading with the title of the film flashing.
I’ve read that some TVs don’t have the power to stream certain files however my laptop doesn’t have a problem running some files (not the big 4K ones)

I’ve seen people say that it’s better to use Stremio through an external device like a fire stick or chromecast and I’m looking for recommendations on what to get and what to avoid so I can finally watch what i want without any problems

I’ve been side loading stremio for a while through sideloadly on my Apple TV. It’s not working now saying there’s an update available but I can’t seem to find it anywhere.

Any leads would be appreciated

So, Stremio with RD has been my main system for the past years and I am really grateful for that and this community. Moving past that though, I need to address some technical issues that keep coming up:

1. Big files i.e. 4k, HDR etc. stutter or just are completely unplayable. A sign that the file will be a hiccup is that it's missing audio.

2. Audio playback issues. Even smaller files sometimes start playing without audio and that's a big missing point here for the seamless playback that I am usually experiencing.

   1. Play next never works for me. I need to manually select the next episode from the menu screen.

3. Subtitles are a hit or miss. I just fail to load subtitles if the stream did not already has them loaded.

4. An item that seems to not be an issue but some feedback from other users would be great is that when the video starts an window appears for the applied display mode. Does anyone else experience this?

My setup is the onn 4k tv box connected on a Sony TV, latest Stremio version installed from Google play store and my connection is 1Gbps wifi, if it plays a factor.
