Is anybody else having trouble with Stremio over the last few days? Everything was smooth until after the weekend. Now it will barely play anything without kicking me out or crashing - external player or not.

It seems like there is a connection error, maybe?

I will mention I did renew the real debrid subscription which seems fishy - I used to use TorrentioRD+ but it doesn’t recognise my subscription so I can only use Torrentio.

Any advice would be great because the internet is kinda useless.

Edit: I went the path of least resistance and changed the API key and reinstalled TorrentioRD. That seems to have fixed the streaming problem for now and also the problem I had streaming in an external player.

Thanks for all your responses. I learned some good stuff. (Please keep responding/replying if you have other ideas as surely other people will have similar problems).

    Note that Debridio doesn’t work without a Debrid service; it exists merely as a paid alternative to Torrentio for when it’s congested with too many users at once. Doesn’t happen too often thankfully.

    I personally prefer how Torrentio formats results, but unreliability with the service has frustrated family members in the past (the point of using Stremio in the first place being to make torrenting as much like using Netflix as possible for non-techies) and made having an alternative useful, just in case.

    In reconfiguring Torrentio, make sure you uninstall it before reinstalling it, as it doesn’t overwrite it.
