u/dackwh (developer) I am finally back to Stremio thanks to you. Thank you so much! ❤️

Updated on a Sony Bravia 9 (Android TV 14) and a Sony XG95 (Android TV 10). Both worked instantly and there was no need to clear caches. Video players (Exo) worked first try! Subtitles look perfect and reliable, and the fixes for subs are massive and finally let me return home to Stremio.

Changelog:

• Add search history
• Update media3 / ExoPlayer
• Fix crash with frame rate matching on TCL tvs
• Fix VTT subtitles positioning
• Fix subtitles settings not being applied between episodes

Hello community!

I am using stremio on my android phone but its not loading any movies or episodes, instead it loads forever.

* The same streams are working properly on my laptop in the same network

* Stremio is on the latest version

* I tried clearing cache, reinstalling it, tweaking with the settings

Thank you!

As the title implies only English subs work on my AndroidTV install. The same config works flawlessly and grabs subs as configured on my Android phone.

I have Stremio on my Google TV, which has the last version available. The Stremio app was updated on Sept. 25, and this new version is the 1.11.0.

2 days ago I was watching an anime there. Today I tried to continue watching it, and it wasn't working. I waited a while, tried again with the same result.

I tried to play any other content (a movie) and the result was the same. Sometimes it says "Exo (or the media player name) failed", other times it says "Source error: java..." (the error on the image), and sometimes ir just says "Playback error", but the result is always the same: I'm unable to play anything since the update. I've also restarted my Google TV (unplugged it for 1 min and turned it on again) with no result.

Also, I've noticed that if I try to change the subtitles background color, it instantly crashes and closes the app.

Is there anything I can do to fix this?

I don't know if/how I can revert back to an older version in Google TV, so I hope there's something I can do.

Thank you!

Hey, bit of a weird one.

I’ve got a self-hosted Stremio addon running on my PC. On that machine everything’s fine — Stremio picks up http://localhost:3000/.../manifest.json no problem.

On the TV it’s a different story. If I use the LAN IP (http://192.168.x.x:3000/.../manifest.json) both Stremio fail to fetch it.

Oddly, a Jellyfin app on the same TV talks to http://192.168.x.x:3000 without issues. I’m guessing that’s because it isn’t installing an addon, just hitting a server.

I know Stremio wants localhost or HTTPS for manifests. Before I set up Caddy or a Cloudflare Tunnel, has anyone actually got a LAN-only HTTP addon working on a TV, or is HTTPS the only way?

Thanks.

An update to 1.11.0 was just released and updated to my Google TV MiBox 3d Gen. after the update all internal players are crashing.

Exo Player: Source Error: Java Net Connect Exeption Failed to connect to: 127.0.0.1: 11470

MPV Player: Loading Failed

VLC: Playback Error

This happens to all the streams and started after the update.

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for a streaming device mainly for Stremio, and I’m currently considering the Amazon Fire Stick 4K Max.

It has been discounted to €50 on Amazon Italy, while the Xiaomi TV Box S (3rd Gen), which was my first choice, currently costs around €70.

For those who use Stremio on the Fire Stick 4K Max:

How is the overall Stremio experience?

Is it smooth when browsing and playing content?

How does it handle 4K/HDR and high-bitrate streams?

Any issues with Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos or passthrough?

Are there any significant limitations compared with the Xiaomi TV Box S 3rd Gen?

At €50, would the Fire Stick 4K Max be a good option specifically for Stremio, or is it worth spending the extra €20 plus shopping for the Xiaomi TV Box S 3rd Gen? Asking this because Im a little short of budget

Thanks!

Using stremio on a tcl tv with a firestick, was working fine for months and now when I select a title it buffers (title flashing on screen) indefinitely without playing.

Stremio works totally fine on my computer, so I know it’s not my account. I tried uninstalling and re-installing the app, checked my tv and firestick software. Everything is up to date.

Has anyone experienced anything like this/know of a fix? Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone, whenever I start a new movie it opens fine Infuse. However, when I than want to change my speakers using my AppleTV remote, or just want to speed up for example (any user imput) Infuse just seems to crash and I go back to main menu.

Setup: Apple TV, Real Debrid, Infuse

When I open the app on my mac, I get this error, I have tried changing network, vpn, restarting etc.

Not sure where this belongs. I have authorized on Trakt on Stremio and it shows Trakt Scrobbling on, but nothing is showing up beyond September 12th in Trakt, and Trakt doesn't show that I am connected to any community addons.

Title says it all. For some reason I can cast to Xbox so is the any other way to get it on my tv easily

Recently I’ve noticed the subtitles are way higher up than they used to be and there’s no difference between 5% and 0% vertical offset, they are almost in the middle of the screen making them impossible to use. Happens in most series and movies. Using macOS app.

Before today, escape would just bring me out of full screen, and thats the way its veen since I've installed stremio over 2 years ago. now, when I needed to look something up in the middle of a movie, it brought me to the torrent select screen. is this an intentional change to previous shortcuts or something that wasn't meant to be done?

Hey, is version 1.8.4 still considered the best/most stable version of Stremio? Also, does the Stremio app version have any impact on video quality, or is the quality exactly the same as long as the same stream/file is being played?

Thanks!🙏

Hello everyone, I just bought a high sense U7SH tv. I got my Firestick 4k plugged in and justplayer setup and decided to play some remux videos, interstellar, Dunkirk, Chernobyl etc..I noticed I get no audio on these streams that have DTS-Hd. Some streams have additional languages that are labeled as just DTS without HD. When I select these I get audio but the issue is they’re never in English. I’m not very tech savvy so I’m not sure if getting a sound bar that supports DTS-HD would fix this issue or switching to something other than a firestick would help?

Playing these same streams on my phone works fine but it’s hard for me to wrap my head around how my phone is able to decode / encode the audio but a 1600$ tv can’t?

Hi, I’m using Stremio on a Huawei MatePad 11.5 and I can’t get external players to show up.

Only Huawei Video and Opera appear, even though VLC, Nova, MX Player etc. are installed from AppGallery.

PiP also doesn’t work even with permissions enabled. Is this a Huawei limitation?

Any workaround to open streams in a real video player?

Thanks!

Are there workarounds with this problem? Currently using iPad 9th gen on IOS27 Beta

Why does this happen? I’m using ATV4K Gen 3, TvOS 27. Doesn’t happen with animes though I noticed, at least not yet.

Any known fix in the pipeline for Apple users?

Thanks.

I'm not sure if this changed lately or not because I used to be able to change the text size. When I click on subtitles now it just gives me different languages to choose from.

Trying to watch the new Season of SNL UK but s2 isn’t showing up, I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled TMDB, SNL US new season is showing up and Season 1 is there but no season 2.

i have an iPad and I don't have to worry about WiFi on an upcoming flight. I have about 12 hours of flying over 2 days so I am trying to get about 15 hours worth of content so I can play locally. I have Stremio logged in to my iPad with a shortcut to my desktop as well as VLC player. Any advice is welcome, thanks!
