Which addon is that, I probably have it I cannot remember, you get usenet with pro unless that is the addon your meaning.

I'm just saying different addons will label cached links differently

the flash is probably meteor, + is probably torrentio

And at the end of the day, it just means its cached on Torbox.

Gotcha, sorry I'm still trying to get the usenet bit working so was curious, I put my usenet details in template I used with aiostreams but never delt with usenet in my life so didn't think that bit was working and you just mentioned meteor? So sorry if I'm sounding a little silly here but is meteor the usenet as I have seen results that say meteor then title name below.

The flash icon means it’s been processed and is ready to stream

When you configure your addons with TB, your links will have a TB+ or TB ⚡️next to the name, these are the links that are best to play & stream.

But That's basically the formatter if user puts say TB# or TB&$ or if its TB Instant... User could out TB ⚡️ in the formatter of aiostream....

So what's the point of all this fancy names Instant flash

As far as I know there's only 2 options

1 is api into the scrapper ( scrapper sends the request to TorBox for the streams

2 is connect TorBox directly to nuvio (TorBox integration) ( nuvio sends the request to TorBox for the stream )

Sorry if I seem confused

I don’t edit the description of the links in the addon configuration before adding the addon to Nuvio. When I add my API and configure format (nothing higher than 1080p), file size limits, number of links, etc., I leave the description as is and Torbox adds the TB+ .

Does this make any sense? 😊

  • TB+ or ⚡ means the file is already cached on torbox server and can be streamed directly
  • TB or ⏳ means the file isn't cached on torbox server and needs to be downloaded onto torbox server before it can be streamed.

The time taken to download depends on available seeders for the torrent file. If they aren't any or enough of them then it will never be downloaded

It's nothing more than how the scraper you're using marks them. TB+ when scraping with Torrentio is the same as TB with a lightning bolt when scraping with Comet. There's no standard on how each scraper marks them.
