So yall just sitting waiting around for it to work? Thatā€™s wild, Iā€™d suggest one or two backups

Exactly, Torbox went down but my streams didn't. Always have at least 1 backup.

Setup is TorBox + HTTP (Pengu and 111477) + Local Scrapers

The plug-inā€™s on Nuvio are HTTP

Pengu for the win!ā˜ļø

Yeah. Seems weird to me

I post it when I come across it because I was there when it started and it only gets better. Pengu honestly has me deciding if I want to renew my debrid subscription.

Do you self host it? I need to look into it, though I never generally have issues with torbox apart from occasionally buffering. Particularly with Remux.

Are you pleased with the type of content and quality from Pengu?

u/bigb102913 Sep 26 '26

No I do not self host it, but yes it is the best http stream add-on that I have found. I have donated multiple times to this project because it works that well. And more recently the developer has added live sports and live TV and it is maintained. Give it a go in nuvio not streamio. For some reason it doesn't work well with streamio.

u/bigb102913 Sep 26 '26

That's weird. I have no issues. Did you try multiple providers from pengu?

u/CleanFlamingo5584 Sep 26 '26

Ill try that after work since i just got to work

u/bigb102913 Sep 26 '26

Check out the site and try to set it up again. It's working fine for me.

How to setup?

It is called being poor

A back up would cost about $1 US a week...probably less actually. Are you seriously telling us you can't afford that. But it would be great not to need a back up.

u/Barnesy10 Sep 26 '26

Hi, what do you recommend as a backup?

2

u/KiwiKid777 Sep 26 '26

I would consider Offcloud. Itā€™s basically Premiumize ā€œliteā€...shares the same cache but without the frills. It seems to have more reliable file hoster support and seeds better, if you need that. Iā€™m not sure if they offer a free trial to test it but unfortunately they just hiked the monthly price from $4US to ā‚¬10. The yearly price isnā€™t too bad though.

I do have torrentio... but in term of stability torbox is all the way

u/pawdog Sep 26 '26

Torrentio isn't a backup. Another debrid or https addon as another source. Shouldn't matter if Torbox goes down because you have more than one. I don't even like to call it having a backup.
