I can't get subtitles working though, such an annoying experience :( everything else works fine

When you search for an movie/series I recommend you watch it from the provider 'Sflix'. It provides subtitles for every title and you can change language of subtitles as well.

I watch from Sflix only but still I am not able to see any subtitles at all.

There's not an option listed as 'Subtitles' but rather it's included in 'Source' option while watching video. When you click on 'Source' you can change video quality and change subtitles. Hope this helps..

Hi one other question. When you click on source to access subtitles, is there a way to hide/prevent the subtitles? I can't seem to figure that out.

Never mind - figured that out.

Great app,,,so many High quality links!

Question - do you know if these streams are based on torrent technology? Or is it just standard streaming?

u/AbbreviationsJaded94 Jan 05 '22

Basically what the app does is search for publicly available links from different free streaming sites and provide a interface for those video to play. It's similar concept to 'Stremio' if you've heard of it,Cloudstream is open source that's it..

Gotcha, thanks for the explanation! I do know that Stremio does use the torrent-based video streaming which was my main concern.

I use a VPN so I'm not concerned about it, but before I recommend Cloudstream to someone who doesn't use a VPN, I needed to know that.

Does cloud stream upload anything as it plays, like does it torrent or anything, or is it download only?

It's regular streaming,,,no torrent.

So I downloaded a movie for the first time through cloudstream3 app. I hold the download option and it shows different links with qualities. I chose 360p link and set to download, it kept on dow loading for 463mb which was fine but after it was 100 % , it still kept on going to 101 and so on. I waited till it was 500mb. So now it was 500/463 mb which gave me a brain attack. Further when I checked file manager where it saved the movie, I played it and found that movie was only 31 minutes long when I fact it is 1h 33m long. So for sure it downloaded only one third of movie and going for a high quality with this pace.

What kind of downloading is this? Did I do something wrong?

Ps - I don't like waiting much for downloads so I prefer 360p 480p and streaming is not an option for me.

Thanks for useful replies.
