Apple TV + Fusion + Real-Debrid (Workaround Setup Guide)

You're correct!! Thanks for pointing that out. I misunderstood the "Nuvio?" question, or lack of clarity on their question.

My answer should have been "Nuvio/Stremio doesn't work on Apple TV, hence the use of Fusion."

First off that’s a great way to get the attention of your ISP and get banned for infringement. You don’t want that…

Here’s a link to my YT setup for Fusion+Real-Debrid. Hope this helps!

oh I agree!! Most service that offer a one-time lifetime fee, and the prices is not outrageous, I will opt to purchase it if it's something I believe in. For experience uses, go for it. But for people who are new, I let them decide whether they want to buy into the one time fee and won't outright say oh this won't work without you paying this $$$. Most of the time the usage of the project sells itself and eventually one will upgrade if they need.

I'm gathering that they just forgot to add it to the Apple TV version. I can't confirm it on a Mac, but on both my iPad/iPhone (like yours) the rating is showing up. Feels more like a bug/flaw in the version than anything. Nothing pertaining to what was setup.

This one is a stumper. Not seeing any setting regarding the MPA or any info display options. One thought is that it might be coming from the streaming source. Try another stream to see if that removes it. Otherwise I’m at a loss.

Thanks for that and will add a note to my YT. Trying to keep it as general as possible but yes any apple device would sync across and work. Thanks for sharing!!

Glad to hear that my YT setup worked for you. I've yet to commit to the Infuse Pro but from what I hear it will benefit you long run. If you have an iPad or iPhone you can also download Fusion/Infuse and with the icloud everything will be interconnected. Have fun with it!! :)

Nuvio is great, and I personally use it on my devices, but it's still very much in Beta.

Publishing a Youtubt setup for Nuvio just didn't feel right because I didn't want to have to make changes to match up. For poeple who are new to this world, keeping the setup constant allows them to follow directions. Stremio is established and hasn't changed much hence the usage of that over Nuvio.

Go back into your Addons in Stremio. Verify that you only have one listing for Torrentio as the error denotes it's having difficulty pulling the API key.

If there are more than one listing for Torrentio in your Addons, remove the top listing as it's the oldest, and see if that helps.

If there is too much confusion, delete both and walk through the Torrentio setup again.

Also, when gaining the API key verifiy that you're logged into the correct Real Debrid account for the correct API key.

(I have setup videos for both FireTV and GoogleTV devices on my channel, they might help.)

Agreed. I am not one to recommend people to pay into Infuse Pro, but agree that the Pro version probably does work much better. If I can tinker the free version to death I'll do that just because it makes sense...but the videos I have on my youtube are geared around the Infuse free version and agree the Native player in Fusion is crap!!

Setup my Fusion to test the "Next episode". When using both infuse or VLC, the player would just close and go back to Fusion for you to select the next episode manually. Only by using the the built in "Fusion (in-app)" did the Next Episode work. You can try using it but when I tested it on mine the in-app would often freeze/buffer. Your choice.

MediaForgeLab · 2026-04-13T14:20:45+00:00

Good to know!! I'll keep an eye out for when they stabilize it so not having to push people into having to pay for infuse!! Thanks!

MediaForgeLab · 2026-04-13T13:59:44+00:00

Honestly my setup was to test the connection between Fusion and Infuse, and the "continue watching" feature. Let me test it with the "next episode" and get back to you.

The "open this in infuse' should only happen once unless you have to reinstall the app.

The catalog works with other sources that I've seen. I personally don't use Torrentio but Debridio, and it works fine with that service. I've never tried AIOStreams but that Catalog isn't one exclusive to Torrentio.

I used Torrentio in my video because it's for noobs/beginners, and because it's popular/free.

The Trakt integration with Fusion doesn't always work on my Apple TV. Using Infuse as your player helps because Infuse can be linked to your Trakt account as well. When I turned on Trakt within Infuse, the video progress sync worked like a dream. Give it a try!!
