The End of Real Debrid + Stremio Streaming Solution?

Real Debrid has just announced the following notice below. Is this the end of Real Debrid + Stremio as we know it?

There are others like All Debrid, Premiumize but not sure how well they are compared to RB

Following a formal notice from the FNEF (https://fnef.fr/les-adherents/), Real-Debrid is strengthening its anti-piracy measures.

As you already know, we actively comply with DMCA and are already blocking a certain number of infringing torrents.

In the coming hours:

  • audiovisual files available on a number of cyberlockers listed on the USTR blacklist or listed in the European "CCounterfeit and Piracy Watch List" will all be blocked.
  • a filtering by file name will also be applied, in accordance with the request of the FNEF, this may unfortunately lead to false positives that we will process manually.
  • a blocking of all torrents hashes of private torrent trackers mentioned in cases at the Paris judicial court
  • a complete purge of files potentially cached on the previously mentioned criteria
  • the deactivation of the API endpoint /instantAvaibility
  • a blocking of counterfeit Kodi / Stremio applications to the extent that they are identifiable

    • Did you try Kodi with Fen Lite? Although I found RD+ with Stremio is better with my setup.

      • I briefly tried Kodi as an external player for Stremio but found that Vemu is better.

        • Kodi is not an external player, it is like Stremio but can do more.

    Is it still working well?

      Yep. Real Debrid + Stremio + Torrentio, been working very well. A couple of short outages for Torrentio this year but nothing major.

      • Is it still working for you? Looks like they removed important hosters.

        • I haven't tried in the last few days, but it was working last week. From what I recall when you "install" torrentio there's a list of hosters/torrent sites to choose from.

            @sween64: Hasn’t worked for me since yesterday. When I load something through stremio it’s not showing in the real-debrid download section. Manual add to downloads results in error message “Host not supported”. Would be great if you could check on your end. Thanks

  • Stopped working for me last night on Android, Android TV and windows. Get different errors depending on which player I use. Exoplayer gives http io error, Libvlc something like error 1 before 0

    Try Stremio with https://comet.elfhosted.com/configure and use your RD API key

    • Thanks for that. That worked.

      It seems Torrentio is not working properly. Either that or something didn't work properly after my realdebrid membership expired.

    • Thanks so much for sharing this.

    • Is comet as safe as torrentio? Ie no need to use VPN etc?

      • yes comet just queries RD server for files stored there so it is safe as long as you only watch stuff with RD tag

  • Just paid USD10 (12mths) for debridio as a backup for torrentio.

  • Tried again and it appears to be up again :)

      Same here. Torrentio does stop working semi-regularly. It’s rarely for too long. It’s worth having another add-on as a backup, Comet seems to be the most recommended.

      Alternatively watch YouTube, ABC or SBS.
