Any time you pause it or rewind it or sneeze it throws the "EXO failed to play this video" error.

That's WHEN it decides to play sound.

I noticed they said they aren't worried about fixing it on github??

What is going on here?

I'm using a shield tv pro and it acts like this on my gaming PC too always freezing and making me force shut it down.

Did something happen with stremio lately?

Edit: anyone know of any viable alternatives that don't require learning hours of self hosting stuff like Jellyfin?

Does jellyfin search for content and request it from debrid torrent streamers ?

No clue why you got down voted. I illegitimately want to know this too.

[–] fizzle@quokk.au 4 points 7 hours ago

Nah, I was being a little bit snarky, trying to point out that jellyfin is not an alternative to stremio.

As far as I know, jellyfin only streams local content, so for movies and TV you probably want the *arr family to find and download all the things.

Illegitimately? If this isn't a typo, I wanna know more information. Lol.

(Fyi, this comment was meant in a light-hearted way. We all make typos here and there and I'm not trying to make fun of you.)

Not alone but arr stack with sonarr etc. can. See trash guide.

[–] fizzle@quokk.au 5 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

Sure but that takes more than 5 minutes, doesn't it.

Install? No, is just install script, see servarr wiki. Setup to search your thing? Probably because not used to interface yet.

But as vendetta say requirement was only jellyfin not full streamio replace.

We're commenting in a post about what's wrong with stremio. Jellyfin was suggested as an alternative.

[–] Vendetta9076@sh.itjust.works 1 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

That's irrelevant to the original point which is setting up jellyfin

[–] chicken@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 hours ago

...As an alternative to a streaming based solution. Given the context OP was not talking about just installing jellyfin, the fair comparison would be everything required to make it work.

[–] fizzle@quokk.au 1 points 3 hours ago

No it's not, the original point was:

What the hell is going on with Stremio man?

Jellyfin is a great project. I use it myself. However, it's not a stremio replacement.
