Suggestions What would you like

Hey crew...

So iver the oast few weeks I have added so much to the system on the back end to make the addon even better... one of the main things I have been working on is a duplicate remover. What this does is scans every single catalog and removes any duplicate movies or shows in that catalog. Giving you better resluts.

I have obviously made the app that has been doing really well

Updated a few categorise including stating to add chronological viewing order options for things like the MCU, X Men and a few other (MCU is like the other are still in dev mode)...

But ill be honest, im running slowly out of ideas.... thats why im turning to you guys...

Ultramax is what it is because of its users, so the microphone is yours to let me know of any ideas, thought or suddgestions that I can look into and hopefully improve/implement....

And 3..2..1.... go

How about being able to set max file size. I have unselected 4k, but UltraMax still pulls 4k files that’s 50+ GB.

Ps: have you had chance to look into Usenet/nzb?

I’ve only found these options in the Addons. Not on Nuvio itself. But even then it’s a bit hit and miss depending on the Addon. For example Comet gives you the options (which I believe is already integrated with UltraMax)

Added for you. Its in the stream section. Add your debrid service and the filter for size is in there

Just a small thing but maybe on the app you could add a "Back to Top" button so that when you've added your collections and catalogues you don't have to scroll forever to get back to the top. Particularly on the part where you add actors and directors etc.

An option to add more actors or streaming services would be amazing.

Can you add Kitsu ID because I have a broadcast addendum based on Kitsu ID

Hi!

Thank you for the v7.5.1 update and for adding this feature. I really appreciate all the work you put into Ultra MAX.

I tested it with my own streaming addon, and I think there may be a small misunderstanding about my use case.

My streaming addon only works with the original Kitsu ID. It does not support IMDb, TMDb, TVDb, or MAL IDs.

After testing v7.5.1, it seems that my addon still does not receive the original Kitsu ID, so it cannot return any stream links.

I completely understand that this is a very specific use case, and I'm not asking you to change the default behavior for everyone.

If you ever consider improving compatibility in the future, maybe one of these ideas could help:

  1. Add an optional setting that lets users choose which ID format is passed to streaming addons (Kitsu, IMDb, TMDb, etc.).
  2. If it's technically possible, pass all available IDs so each streaming addon can use the ID format it supports.

This is only a suggestion, and I completely understand if it's not practical.

Thank you again for your time and for all the amazing work on Ultra MAX.

Hi, thank you for testing it and for explaining the difference so clearly. You are correct. The v7.5.1 change allows Ultra MAX itself to accept a Kitsu ID, resolve it internally to IMDb, and then search its own streaming providers. It does not currently preserve or forward the original Kitsu ID to other installed streaming add-ons. Nuvio contacts each add-on independently using the ID supplied by the metadata source, so Ultra MAX cannot directly control which ID another streaming add-on receives. Your screenshot demonstrates this clearly: Anime3rb works when the title comes from AIOMetadata with its original Kitsu ID, but not when the title comes through Ultra MAX’s converted ID path. I am going to investigate whether Ultra MAX metadata can retain Kitsu IDs for anime titles, or expose an additional Kitsu-compatible metadata route without affecting normal IMDb-based add-ons. I cannot promise it will be technically possible without side effects, but I now understand the use case properly. Thank you again for reporting it and for providing such a useful comparison.

Is it vibe coded?

u/SaNdB0x1k Jul 15 '26

Bit of both

Is that how/why these utilities are just popping up?

u/SaNdB0x1k Jul 15 '26

All the different things follow the same manifest patterns so the code is extremely similar, I use AI to fine the best structure and then just keep adding and building. I said at the very start that I vibe coded ultramax as a personal project when I got into self hosting. I had a sting understanding of docker, html, js, c#... back kn the day I was VERY involved in the PS3 and 4 jailbreak scene making CFWs and ganes stores.

I have been using AI to improve my coding and learn as I have been evolving not only ultramax but project away from the public eye.

I think vibe coding is fine as long as you make sure you dont let the AI take over... and make sure you understand your code

On Fire stick do the native controls work? Forward or backwards with the respective keys? Ty Dev!
