How to Install & Set Up Torrentio Stremio Addon

I’m still having intermittent issues with Torrentio. And even when it appears to be working, it’s not returning as many streams as it has in the past. I added Comet and it returns some streams but not a lot.

Not sure why that would be. I haven’t had any problems and can always find enough good scrapes to watch whatever I choose. I haven’t tested Torrentio this morning, to many good sports going on. Just to be sure, I always authorize both Premiumize and Real Debrid in my addons, so I don’t use Torrentio on it’s own but rather TorrentioPM or TorrentioRD

Thank you for your response
No, it does not work on any device, gives me either no streams available or most recent ‘invalid key’. Even tho I’ve re installed all the add-on with a new RD key
Comet & Media fusion are painfully slow, I have some success with pirate bay only, but only very new shows
I have the ‘main’ stremio on my laptop where I do all the tweaking, and torentio wo t work there either

Should I delete it off everything and start over (including the laptop s/u)

I’ve honestly never seen or tested any android streaming device that it hasn’t worked on. What sort of speeds do you have? My isp provides a 150MBs down which obviously is plenty fast enough. Without being beside you on whatever device you’re using I haven’t a clue why your speeds are so bad on the addons. I would take a guess that there is something wrong like a bad hdmi cable or if on WiFi you may be getting some sort of interference. Do you have the option of using ethernet and testing that out? For WiFi I have the 2.4 GHz turned off and use just the 5GHz I don’t have a 6 GHz modem.

On a speed test I get at least 150 down on wifi, I have to have 2.4 turned on for some random devices that I use occasionally and I do not have the option of Ethernet. I’d really like to get torentio back up, as that worked really well.

I just did a full test on Torrentio and it is running perfectly for me and fast. 150 and some addons slow. Damn that shouldn’t be. At this point I might consider doing a full power cycle. In other words disconnect power from your streamer, TV and modem. Wait for a few minutes, plug it all back in turn it on and see if that clears the problem. If this happens on multiple devices on the same network then yes I would consider uninstalling all addons and then testing with just torrentio installed and see what results you get. If Stremio is updated to the latest version and you are having issues with just torrentio and you still are having problems then yes give a complete uninstall and reinstall of Stremio. I am guessing that the problem is on different OSs and different TVs. If this was occurring on just one TV I would switch HDMI cables and the TV hdmi port. Are you using a VPN or a private DNS?

Hmmm..ok then I’ll just try to delete everything from all devices & start over I guess
I’m on a VPN,when it first started to error a few weeks ago, I’d have to change locations and it would work, but that stopped doing the trick

I have one IPTV service that happens on. I have to switch VPN servers occasionally. I would just test one device at a time. Sorry I don’t have an exact answer as I simply don’t know your setup or devices and I haven’t experienced issues like you’re having. Please be sure to power cycle your stuff or at least do your modem. It could have a IO stack issue.

I don’t think you are the only

I have an active VPN and use it all the time. No problem for me.

The reason I didn’t focus on VPN or the DNS was because the OP said they were returning some sources, on media fusion as an example but they were slow, and that with a 150Mbps down. At this point I have no more ideas. Tx for the info @Avid08.

I am not sure if that is the op’s issue but I have seen it mentioned that some VPN IP’s have issues with Torrentio.
The op could try without a VPN or try different server locations or another VPN to troubleshoot.

II want to set up different friends, how do I set them up using different RD accounts? I don’t want to use the same RD account on different sticks. Thanks for all your help.

When you set up RD in an addon be sure to use your friends API key that they can get from their online RD account, to authorize it. Also be sure to log into Stremio with their account.

So each person has to have their own Stremio account. I was hoping I could just take my laptop to each house and just change a few things.

The Stremio app has to be signed into. Once you do the setup, add all the addons and configure them then your setup is saved in the cloud. Once you install Stremio on any other device and log into it, your setup is applied, without any further work on your part. However while you can use your own setup for other ppl you can’t share the API. RD and PM will not allow you to share your key. Doing so can get you banned. It’s really easy to install Stremio with the downloader app and use Troy’s toolbox. Then configure it for each individual with their own login. Now if they want to use their account at your place, they simply log you out and then log in with their credentials and their entire setup is applied to your Stremio. Then when done you log them out and log yourself in.
