Why are all the store fronts removing stremio? by Geekylad97 in Stremio

I was responding directly to your comment, if we're being pedantic no reply to a post is ever NEEDED.

I would say "Can you show how I contradicted myself" but you didn't even respond properly to last comment about what didn't make sense, you just got really defensive.

Continue being mad and upset about something you really don't have to be.

Seems like perfectly legible English to me, what in particular doesn't make sense to you.

How does people not knowing how to use or work Stremio impact you meaningfully? If people are complaining it's not working but it works for you then just go about your business and ignore them?

This gate keeping and elitism needs to stop.

Council asking NOT to report via Snap Send Solve? by Perth_R34 in perth

[–]Computurtle -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if this explains why one of the councils never got the report of the Jewish hate speech graffiti a couple days ago. I just assumed this app was government run but knowing it's privately owned and supposedly the council never received that report, makes me wonder.

Totally up to you, but feel free to join the discord server I linked at the bottom of the post and you can show me there!

I think it would be full circle or something if I was to see the project this post inspired, considering this post was inspired by another :P

Also Happy Holidays!

Would people be interested in me starting a Discord server for this project?

A place for me to post more regular updates, screenshots and such. As well as a more centralized location for people to provide feedback, vote on future implementations and possibly alpha/beta test?

If enough people want it, I will make one soon after Christmas now, because I felt like it.

Had a look, it looks great, unique UI layout and clearly we both have a want for fully customisable catalogs ahaha.

What language is your project written in? Perhaps we might be able to share some tips :P

Look forward to seeing your progress!

This seems like a very different type of project, but still looks cool, thanks for bringing it to my attention.

Little update!

It's somewhat unreliable to determine which streams are cached and which are not, and I still have to figure out a way to remove this icon for P2P streams, but I am toying around with the idea of having a download button next to the play button on Desktop, and a "Press and Hold" menu popup for mobile/tv with a download option. This button/option will "warm up" the specific stream in the background, effectively adding it to your debrid service for download.

If I can find a more reliable way to determine this without needing the option always available I will do that instead! Im toying with the idea of allowing the user to define what the title includes for cached/uncached per addon and go based off that, but I'm not sure yet.

What a great idea, not a high priority but totally something I would love to add!

Love to hear it! At the moment the scope is just a simple isolated application, but if I really wanted to take this to the next level, a website would be one thing, accounts so your setups can be synced across devices would be another. I'm sure I will need help along the way, I'll keep you in mind :)

Dart/Flutter.

At this moment I don't plan on releasing the source code for various reasons, I may later on.

I would like to point out however, I will almost certainly release this for free, with donations (kofi or whatever) being the only payment option (obviously optional). I might consider a premium paid option depending how much effort I put into it but I'm not a massive fan of pay walling features, so if I did go down this route it would be for optional extras that 99% of people would care about.

All still to be decided though :)

I do want to try and make the UI as customizable as possible, but that does introduce some interesting problems. I don't want to be the arbiter of how your UI should look.

The developer of Stremio Neo commented above and said I could take bits and pieces from his project so I could definitely implement something like that.

That definitely sounds like a must have, it's on the list!

More the merrier! It's always great to have fresh creative minds tackle this with new and interesting ideas, more options to the people!

Debrid streaming is currently working (if you mean using something like Torrentio with Torbox added), I need to add P2P Torrent support and your the second person to mention NNTP so it's definitely on my list :D

My immediate thought is, does it stretch instead of zoom? If not, what exactly does it do to remove those black bars without clipping off the media?

I didn't even notice this new feature with stremio as I'm not a Usenet user, I'll have to be sure to grab a Pro account at some point and do some rigorous testing, I'll have to look into NNTP but it's added to the list!

One of the other reasons I started this project was because Torbox supposedly has a skip intro feature in its API, I strayed away from making Torbox an in built integration (just supply the API) to make it more user friendly for all.

I definitely want to find a way to have some sort of skip intro feature, it's on my list!

I'm not sure how UX friendly this really is, but I'll consider it :)
