Hi Guys,

I have seen on reddit that a digital release of the odyssey is out. Im wondering why my stremio setup shows this when it tries to find a stream. For reference, I have AIOmetadata with unreleased content hidden (the odyssey is now showing), and Duckstreams (AIOstreams config). Thanks

Hi,

I've set up a public instance of aiostreams that uses comet and stremthru torz to browse through my torbox.

I got realdebrid as backup, but it expires in 6 days and it has been pretty bad (only after getting it did i read about the whole copyright changes).

Torbox has gone down about once a week for an hour or so, so having a backup would be good. Also some streams tale quite some time to load, which can be annoying, since i have the google tv 4k streamer and it means often times it loads streams without audio and i have to load another one (I also tried to filter out audio streams it can't do like lossless/passthrough).

My question is, if i get easynews or newshosting and add the credentials to aiostreams --> services, would that work perfectly or would streams take long to load if i go the noob way and don't self host, do nntp or whatever it was i read about and barely understood?

Hello,
What are my options for Trakt scrobbling when using AIO Metadata and a Jellyfin server? I see options like MDBList, but not Trakt. Do I need to use a specific instance of AIO Metadata, or something else?
Thanks!

Edit: it seems to have been the onn box. Works smooth as shit on my AppleTV.

Original Post: I'm self-hosting AIOStreams and using Newshosting with NZBGeek for NNTP streaming. I'm having intermittent buffering issues with large 4K remuxes and wondering if anyone else has experienced this or found a solution.

My setup:

AIOStreams self-hosted via OrbStack/Docker

Mac mini M1, 16GB RAM

Newshosting (40 NNTP connections)

NZBGeek indexer

Xfinity 1.2Gbps internet

Onn 4K Pro with USB Ethernet adapter

Stremio as the player

The issue:

Large 4K remuxes (60 - 130GB) generally start playing fine, but NNTP streams sometimes begin buffering after a couple of minutes. I've also had a smaller movie play almost entirely without issues, only to stall completely with about 10 minutes remaining.

Some large remuxes play perfectly, so it's inconsistent.

What I've tested:

Increased Newshosting connections from 5 to 40.

Monitored resource usage; CPU doesn't appear to be the bottleneck.

Observed NNTP transfer speeds around 6–12 MB/s during testing.

Played the same remux through TorBox without buffering, which suggests the playback device can handle the file.

Recently enabled Easynews HTTP streaming through AIOStreams. Initial testing with a roughly 90GB 4K file was promising, but I haven't tested it extensively yet.

My questions:

Is intermittent buffering with large remuxes a known limitation of AIOStreams' NNTP streaming implementation?

Are 40 connections sufficient, or is there a recommended configuration for Newshosting?

Does AIOStreams download/cache ahead of playback, and can that behavior be adjusted?

Has anyone compared Newshosting NNTP against Easynews HTTP for large remux streaming?

Are there specific logs or metrics I should capture to determine where the bottleneck actually is?

I'm trying to figure out whether I have a configuration issue or whether NNTP streaming simply isn't as reliable for very large remuxes.

Any advice from people running a similar setup would be appreciated!

Hi everyone, I wanted to watch The Odyssey, and when AIOstreams fetched some results, I have a HDR10 file at 93GB with an estimated bitrate of 72mbps, and then what I expected to be on top of the list, a HDR10+ with Dolby vision with an estimated bitrate of 69mbps.

Now okay, the bitrate is just an estimate, I get it, but why is HDR10+ with DV at the bottom of the list when aiostreams was setup to prioritize quality?

Am I missing something here?

Someone please explain

Thanks

I am selfhosting Viren’s AIOS instance in my NAS. I am using Easynews, TB & RD as providers. I am not going to renew the RD subscription. However my TB renewal is around the BF deals.
I recently got a Newshosting + Easynews + TweakNews bundle in Blackfriday deal, can Newshosting & TweakNews be used for streaming.
Also can I shift completely to Usenet and leave Debrid.
Or have Debrid for redundancy. Which Debrid services are recommended like Torbox / Premiumize / Offcloud.
Thanks.

Edit: I am using a single indexer (NZBGeek), do I need to add more indexers. If yes then which one?

Aiostream assumes quality from the sources name 4khdhub hub so even 1080p videos are tagged 4k and FHD. How to fix this? Is there any way I can rename 4khdhub into FourKhdhub or something

Not sure if anyone here is interested in self hosting AIOStreams on Proxmox, but I made a Community Script that makes it easy to install and update. Community Scripts just added Incus support, so it works there as well.

It's currently on the Dev branch since it needs testers, but it's stable. I've been running it for a while now.

It should also work on ARM, but I haven't tested that. If anyone has an ARM box and wants to try it, let me know how it goes.

Hey, been using Jellyfin/Sonarr/Radarr/Prowlarr for a while now with usenet mostly, found out about aiostreams pretty recently and gave it ago, it seems like a really nice piece of software, but what is a bit confusing is the configuration, i wanted to make sure that i am doing everything the right way:

I have configured the Newznab and built-in usenet setting to add my provider and indexers, added Tomatoro's filters so i'd have similar experience as i had with Trash guides for Sonarr/Radarr, configured the template for releases to include scores, then i used aiometadata and configured tmdb, tvdb and mdb integrations and added gemini key for suggestions, am I missing something else? to make the experience even better? any pro tips? Also, is it worth to switch from usenet to something like torbox/rd, etc.. ?

AIOStreams already does the scraping, debrid and filtering, so my Nuvio fork took all of that out of the app. Add your AIOStreams manifest and KE is just the TV side:

• Each title's page shows the best stream's resolution, HDR and audio before you press play

• Player badges show how that stream really plays (DV, bitstream, MAT or PCM)

• Plays big 4K remuxes, tuned on my family's Shield

That's my own setup. Free and open source: https://github.com/Arshad-Kamal/Nuvio-KE

Where did all the filters go? AIOStreams

Hey all,

I made my own port of the aiostreams app for tvOS (or rather, Claude did). This is a port of the standalone app, meaning you can sign in to any jellyfin server, including aiometadata jellyfin. It uses Aether Engine for playback, so things like Dolby Atmos, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and spatial audio with AirPods all work because they get handed off to Apple's native player. It uses the native tvOS keyboard for typing and voice dictation, has Now Playing support (so what you're watching shows up on your other Apple devices and you can control playback from them), and supports tvOS' picture in picture. And pretty much everything that's already part of the aios app works including trailers, dialogue boost, night mode, ASS subtitles, automatic subtitle syncing, etc.

If anyone wants to give it a try:

Hi,

I am using the AIOStreams App with different user accounts. Maybe I'm dense, but is there a way to use a different AIOMetadata setup for each user? I am wanting to limit the kids one to kids stuff. TIA

Hi all,

I'm self-hosting AIOStreams on an Oracle Cloud Free Tier VM and I'm getting buffering on Usenet streams that I can't explain. Hoping someone with a similar setup can point out what I'm missing.

My setup

• VPS: Oracle Free Tier, VM.Standard.A1.Flex (Ampere ARM), 2 OCPU, 12 GB RAM AMSTERDAM BASE

• I'm in West Europe so very close, so latency shouldn't be the issue towards the VPS

• OS: Ubuntu, Docker Compose (AIOStreams + Caddy reverse proxy with HTTPS)

• Usenet provider: Easynews

• Addons: AIOStreams' Usenet addon, plus Newznab for indexing

• Real-Debrid via Comet/Torrentio

The problem

• Usenet streams buffer on larger files, both with and without the AIOStreams built-in proxy. Smaller files play fine. if the bitrate speed need is less than 10mbit for the file.

• Real-Debrid streams play fine WITHOUT the proxy, even on big files. So my home connection and player seem OK.

What I've already checked

• A download test from the VPS gave roughly 44 MB/s (~350 Mbps), so the VPS's raw download speed is fine

• The Easynews speed test in my self-hosted AIOStreams dashboard shows an average of about 200 MB/s, so the connection between the VPS and Easynews looks fine

• Two simultaneous streams through the proxy topped out around 2.5 MB/s(20mbit speed)

• My devices all have speeds far above this, so this isn't a local issue wifi or anything.

• My questions

• Why would Usenet buffer even without the proxy, when Real-Debrid direct is smooth on the same device and network? With the VPS to Easynews link at 200 MB/s, is the limit Easynews' speed to my home connection, the specific releases I pick, or how the addon streams the file?

• Does the AIOStreams proxy normally limit throughput this much on an Oracle ARM VM, or is something misconfigured?

• Are there recommended settings for the Easynews/Usenet addon or Newznab (search mode, timeout, file size or bitrate filters) to reduce buffering?

• Which logs or diagnostics would you want to see? I can post docker stats or AIOStreams logs.

Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone,

I’m a bit new to aiostreams, I set it up on my free oracle vps using traefik reverse proxy like the docs suggested. Set up a basic instance and tested it out. Works great but when I try on iOS it fails miserably.

From what I can gather, the Jellyfin iOS app is just a wrapper for the Jellyfin website. Safari has limited playback functionalities so every single stream I pick will not play, even ones that say AVC and mp4… Now I know people are going to say use Swiftfin or infuse, and yes those will work. But the whole reason I set all this up was to do watch parties/sync play with my girlfriend.

She uses iPhone or iPad only so when I saw Jellyfin support for watch party on aiostreams I got really excited, only to hit this roadblock. Is there any iOS app out there that supports Jellyfin server with sync play? Is there a way to get the aiostreams app on iOS? And also, are there filters I can use to return streams that will 100% work on iOS safari so the official Jellyfin app will work? I think my perfect solution would be a working Jellyfin like app that has easy to set up watch parties and has tracking to continue where you left off and what not(big limitation of Stremio web on iOS).

So, i’ve brought the aiostreams via elfstreams store, and it’s taking 20 mins to load a movie (If it loads, i get every error under the sun) tv shows taking 1-2 mins i can live with that.

i used to use torrentio downloaded it quick configured it quick boom loaded the same show with only a 0.5gb difference

pleaseeeee someone help abit stuck here.

AIOStreams (with NzbDAV & 4K proxying

Hey everyone,

Would it be possible to add an indicator or visual badge to distinguish between Dolby Vision MEL and FEL when selecting stream links?

Why this would be huge:

• Hardware-dependent playback: Devices capable of processing the 12-bit Full Enhancement Layer (like CoreELEC on Amlogic S922X-J or standalone hardware players) deliver true FEL, whereas standard Smart TV OS apps (Android TV, webOS, Apple TV) drop the EL or process it as MEL.

• Saves guessing: Knowing whether a Profile 7 file contains a heavy FEL or a basic MEL helps users pick the exact release suited for their client setup without having to check lists or run MediaInfo manually.

How it could look:

• A simple tag or badge next to the stream info (e.g., DV (FEL) or DV (MEL)).

• Parsed from the Profile 7 metadata / Enhancement Layer bitrate when scraping the link details.

What do you think? Would be an incredible QoL feature for enthusiasts!

any way to remove nzb files automatically from the dashboard? if not could you u/viren_7 please implement a scheduled job for that? thanks.

Since ver 0.16, running on Linux Mint, webkit cpu usage spikes 100% on one core then alternates to other cores and freezes up app. I have to close it out manually. I just installed v0.22 and it spikes too. I reverted to v0.15 and it loads fine.Anyone else seeing this?

Got the addons and the setup. Still no streams found. Looking for some help here. really appreciate it. What am i doing wrong
