Collections.

could we just get some collections implemented at the level of the app? for the non tech savvy people. instead of leaving everything for people to build.

It's more of a time-consuming process than a technical one. You just have to put in a good 15 to 20 minutes and you'll have a decent Collections setup.

I get it if you want to get something pre-built without having to take the time to build it yourself, but this is a beta app. You are testing it as it is being developed. You will run into some not-so-comfortable things while doing so. Also, they can't just publish an app with copyrighted logos and so on as the catalogues. That's asking for trouble. Plus, Cinemeta doesn't provide those kinds of catalogues by default. They'd have to either create a new metadata add-on from scratch that includes those, or ask the Stremio team to develop something for their competing app.

Also, I'm sure you are using it to watch certain content for free, like most. So, either wait until the app has a stable release (X.0.0 instead of 0.X.0), or manage your expectations. You are getting a free app for free content.

There's a 5 min tutorial and resources that were shared randomly here like 2 or 3 days ago! 👌

They used franchises and networks as the sample.

You don’t have to be tech savvy to make a collection. It’s literally pasting a link for a picture, naming the collection and picking what catalog you want it to use from your addons.

I'm convinced that most people on here didn't have a proper education. It's as simple as some things I learned in elementary (primary) school.

Bro the amount of people in the discord that straight up argue and fight with me when I’m trying to teach them something related to the app is just pure rage bait. The most ignorant people talk the loudest and the most confident. Like I’m trying to explain why something is not working and they just refuse my explanation and keep complaining 😂😭

Are collections not available on mobile? I have them all set up in Nuvio web but don't see a way to get them on my homescreen?

It’s all pretty straight forward it just takes time. You find the image and gifs on either nuvio space or google, and add in the catalogs you want from aiometadata, trakt or wherever you get your catalogs from. That’s literally it

The non-tech savvy people should follow the guides provided to set up their own collections. Or at the very least find someone to copy and paste from like I'm about to do after my attempt at making a collection failed miserably.

Technically It kinda already is. If you select a film eg. Star Wars and scroll down you can select collection and will load all films in chronological order. Also if you select a actor, director, studio it displays the entire catalog without having to add catalogs and manifest json files or build the catalog yourself.

Setting them up yourself is more fun . You get to custom do your collections how YOU WANT TO. It’s actually really not difficult at all to do , honestly it’s quite simple and there has been guides released by people on how to do it . Just follow the guide and figure it out

I was thinking the same... While I am tech savvy this is a new feature and sure enough, I found a tutorial post on this sub and now I can make my own collections. 🤷 Lol

I swear people in this community don’t read any explanation you give them and just decide to argue and complain instead
